The Cleveland Cavaliers wrap up their back-to-back with a matchup against the Sacramento Kings.
The pregame narrative: I’m finding it tough to pick a side here with the Cavaliers playing on no rest on the road. However, I will mix together prop picks on Evan Mobley, Zach LaVine and Keegan Murray to make a parlay for the action.
Check out my +320 Cavaliers vs. Kings SGP predictions for March 19.
Cavaliers vs. Kings predictions
Parlay: Mobley over 17.5 points | LaVine over 19.5 points | Murray 2+ threes (+320)
Mobley over 17.5 points (-150): The fourth-year pro has taken a massive step forward offensively this season and he’s in the right spot to go off.
Mobley finished with exactly 17 last night against the Los Angeles Clippers but this is a friendlier matchup.
According to Fantasy Pros, the Kings allow the second most points to power forwards per game (24.37).
- Over his past 16 games, Mobley is averaging 20.2 PPG and is 10-6 vs. this line.
- He finished with 17 points three times, showing off his high offensive floor.
If this game is close as the Cleveland -5.5 line indicates, the Cavaliers’ power forward would play above-average minutes.
Take the opponent into account and this is a smash spot for Mobley.
NBA SGP legs
LaVine over 19.5 points (-148): LaVine has been quite successful in his short stint with his new team.
Since being moved at the deadline, the dynamic guard has averaged 22.7 points in 18 appearances.
He is taking fewer shots with more mouths to feed in Sacramento compared to the Chicago Bulls.
So, although he is scoring less with the Kings, he’s scoring the ball with incredible efficiency.
- 52.7 FG%
- 44.1 3PT%
LaVine has recorded 20-plus points in 13-of-18 games with Sacramento. That includes in 10 of the last 12 starts.
Murray 2+ threes (-205): Murray is having his worst shooting season, canning a career-low 1.9 triples per game at a 33.3% rate.
But if we look at his stats since Jan. 1, things are a lot more promising.
- 2.3 threes made per game
- 37.6 3PT%
- 23-9 against this line
During that run, the stretch big has attempted 50 more 3-pointers than 2-pointers. His shot is falling and he’s relying on it more and more as he heats up.
Murray drained two-plus 3s in 11 of his last 13 games.
