Losing steam in their bid of making it into the ensuing round of NBA 2019-20, for both Portland Trail Blazers and Sacramento Kings, today’s clash comes bearing with it momentous consequences. In 9th and 10th spot respectively, a defeat for either would see the side lose further ground in a bid to breach the top 8 and with it grow further adrift of each other.
Defeated 127-117 by the Suns the last time around to see their two game winning spree be curbed, Portland Trail Blazers move back to the comfort of their home stadium where they have managed to fare off reasonably well. 17-13 infront of their boisterous supporters, the club will be looking to give them something to rejoice in and erupt in jubilant celebrations when it takes on a Kings unit which is 13-19 in opposition arenas.
The Kings are also coming into today’s clash having tasted defeat the last time around with their 125-108 defeat against Philadelphia curtailing their mini revival in the league. However, with three wins in succession prior to that, the side has punched above its weight off late to show vigour and fortitude, qualities they’ll be turning to infront of Portland.
Probable Winner
For all their inconsistency in the league this season, Portland have managed to persistently keep executing pinch perfect attacking players. Blessed with a repertoire of wordclass attacking names, the side has kept stringing together formidable attacking displays, one which will end up pummelling the Kings today.

Carmelo Anthony makes an advent into our framework from the home side for this imminent fixture.

POR Vs SAC Dream11 Centre
A player who has refused to let anything go throw him this season, Hasan Whiteside has become a massive headache for the opposition attacking player.
