💰 Kings win total prediction
Here's why our NBA expert Corey Scott expects the Kings to finish Under 35.5 wins as one of his NBA win total predictions for the 2025-26 season:
⬇️ Under 35.5 wins
The Kings’ ceiling is low, as they’re running back their version of the 2023-24 Bulls with DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine. They added Westbrook and signed Keegan Murray - who is expected to miss three to six months with a thumb injury - to a five-year extension. This team may start selling at the trade deadline if it gets off to a slow start in a tough Western Conference.
✅ Prediction: Under 35.5 wins (+100 via DraftKings)
🔮 Best Kings futures bet
Here's why our NBA expert Liam Fox is betting on the Kings to make the NBA Play-In Tournament as one of his best NBA futures bets for the 2025-26 season:
📈 Kings to make NBA Play-In Tournament
This roster has "decent but not exactly good" written all over it, so let's target the DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine-led Kings to make the play-in rather the playoffs. That feels like a rather likely scenario even with these +185 odds suggesting otherwise.
✅ Best bet: Kings to make NBA Play-In Tournament (+185 via FanDuel)
