*10* GAME OF WEEK on Sacramento Kings.

The Dallas Mavericks had lost three straight on the road before ending the skid with a 92-81 home-win against Denver Saturday. Tonight they're back on the road again as they prepare to take on the Kings at Sacramento, and I like the hosts in this match-up.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Rajon Rondo's Revenge - The Kings' point guard left Boston for Dallas on Dec. 28 last season but failed to make himself comfortable at the new club and could never fit into coach Rick Carlisle's system. He's proving what a player he can can be in the right environment now though as he's averaging 12.4 points, a league-leading 11 assists and 7.3 rebounds so far with the Kings. He'll have the rest of the Sacramento players pumped up to maximum here against his old club.

2. Previous Meetings - The Kings have covered the spread in five of the last seven meetings and the underdog is 6-2 over the last eight match-ups.

3. X-Factor - Sacramento lost 120-101 to the still undefeated Warriors Saturday, but its 5-1 ATS in its last six games following an ATS loss.

Selection: This is a play on the Sacramento Kings (10*)
