Why the Spurs can cover
San Antonio came up short against Washington on Monday, but it led by as many as eight points in the first quarter and clawed to within four points midway through the third quarter. Small forward Keldon Johnson led the Spurs with 26 points, while Jeremy Sochan scored 17 points. Big man Zach Collins notched a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds, marking his third double-double of the season.
Johnson has been a bright spot for the Spurs this year, averaging 21.9 points and 4.8 rebounds, while scoring 34 points against Phoenix on Saturday. Sacramento has struggled in its trips to San Antonio in recent years, going 4-15 in the last 19 meetings. The Kings have been overvalued over the past two weeks as well, covering the spread just two times in their last six games.
Why the Kings can cover
Sacramento might not have much recent success at San Antonio to lean on, but the Kings have won four straight meetings between these teams. They are coming off a 118-111 overtime win at Minnesota on Monday, as star guard De'Aaron Fox poured in 32 points and Trey Lyles added eight points in the extra session. Sacramento lost to the Timberwolves in the first game of the back-to-back, but it was able to avenge that loss.
Fox has scored 30 points on 13 occasions this season, averaging a team-best 24.1 points and 6.1 assists. Forward Domantas Sabonis notched his league-leading 38th double-double of the campaign with 17 points and 13 rebounds against Minnesota. San Antonio has not only been losing games, but it has failed to cover the spread in five consecutive contests. San Antonio will be shorthanded on Tuesday as it will be missing second-leading scorer Devin Vassell (knee).
