NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER*
(NBA) Sacramento vs. Portland,
Point Spread: -6.00 | -110.00 Portland (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Portland Trail Blazers
Rating: 8*

Great spot to back the Portland Trail Blazers here as they host the Sacramento Kings Friday night. The Kings fell apart in the second half of a tough loss to the Lakers home in Sacramento on Thursday, and how much gas do they have left in the tank for this contest? Some teams are more preferred than others to take on at the tail of a back-to-back set, and this young up-tempo Blazers team must be one of the worst options out there. Particularly this time around as the Blazers will be looking to bounce back after getting embarrassed in a 111-80 loss to the Clippers. The Trail Blazers are 6-2 ATS in their last eight Friday night games and Moda Center will surely be rocking tonight. The home fans will be firmly behind the Blazers, and so will I. The Kings are 1-4 ATS in the last five head-to-head meetings. Take Portland minus the points.
