Brooklyn Nets vs Sacramento Kings prediction

The Sacramento Kings should be favored on their home floor, where they play their best ball, and they've won 3 of the last 4 meetings against the Nets. With that said, the Kings could be without Monk who is dealing with an illness. Also, we're not going to act like the Nets haven't won 6 of their last 7 games and are 16-4-1 ATS on the season. The Nets are one of the league's top moneymakers for bettors this season. If it's not broken, don't fix it. Give me the Nets and the free buckets.
