This is a 10* TOP DISCORD THURSDAY TOTAL on the OVER Kings/Suns.

Sacramento will be out to break an eight-game slide.

That includes a 123-111 setback at Washington last night.

I'm not buying into the fatigue factor here though. The Kings have been out of contention for a while now, these are young players that are trying to pad stats and simply earn their franchise a victory and snap the slide.

Not surprisingly, the Kings will also play with the added motivational incentive of "revenge" here after falling to Phoenix 116-100 on December 27th.

The Suns come in off a lower-scoring 106-86 win over Miami. It's a race to the finish line in the West.

Note that Phoenix has seen the total go OVER the number in eight of its last 11 home games following a SU/ATS home victory in which it conceded 88 or less points in.

Considering the motivational, situational and trend-based factors listed above, we do indeed feel this number is a tad low.

The play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP
