NBA game preview

Coming into tonight's matchup, the Portland Trail Blazers are 2-1 overall and 1-0 on the road.

After losing to the Phoenix Suns 114-112, the team has recorded back-to-back wins over the Los Angeles Clippers and Toronto Raptors for their preseason slate. In the recent 28-point win over the Clippers, Damian Lillard had 35 points on 9-for-17 shooting. CJ McCollum added 20 points while Jusuf Turkic had 13 points to go with nine rebounds. Portland looks like they have potential to contend in the Western Conference this season, but it may be tight to get a playoff spot based on the migration of talent from the East to the West teams.

The Sacramento Kings have gone 1-2 to start off their exhibition games this preseason. The team opened with a win over the San Antonio Spurs 106-100 in their first game, before dropping the next game at San Antonio.

Their latest outing was a 75-69 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Zach Randolph managed to score 16 points for the Kings while Garrett Temple recorded 12 points. The Kings will be a team in rebuild mode this season despite the fact they added veterans like Randolph and Vince Carter. The future looks bright with scoring machine Buddy Hield and De'Aaron Fox among the future stars for this team.

For tonight's point spread, Vegas Insider lists Portland as a seven-point favorite on the road. The over/under points total is 199 for the complete game in Sacramento.
