KCP is a guy who I don’t bet on often but this is too good of a spot to pass up. He has 11+ points in four straight games and in six of his last seven. He gets an amazing matchup today against a Sacramento team who allows the most points to shooting guards. KCP is playing great ball right now and this game should be perfectly suited for him to continue the nice streak he’s on.

KCP loves playing the Kings. He has scored 11+ points in 15 of his last 19 games against them. KCP has played 30-plus minutes in seven straight games and this game projects to be high-scoring and close, which we obviously love for any over. Sacramento is getting abused by shooting guards night in and night out and with Jokic on the floor, I see KCP getting some open easy looks.

I wouldn’t ladder this because KCP doesn’t usually go north of 15 or 20-plus but if he sees his usual 8-10 FGA then I like our odds here assuming they are open looks. KCP averages 11.5 points per game so we are getting a discount on what is the best possible matchup. The best part is the juice is in our favor and this is nearly plus odds, this is a steal. Let's roll!
