Game summary

Sacramento Kings vs Portland Trail Blazers is regular-season NBA action on Friday 23 October 2026, and our picks are a Portland Trail Blazers win with the total points below the league average.

Why this pick?

Our model picks the Portland Trail Blazers because it rates them clearly the stronger team, 13th of 30 against Sacramento's 29th, on results and the players expected to play. The counterweight is small: the Kings are at home. That does not close a gap of that size, and Portland arrive off a 124‑83 win over Phoenix having taken four of the last five meetings between the two. Sacramento's injury report lists Maxime Raynaud as Out along with Dylan Cardwell and Ben Simmons, which does not help the home side. The call is moderate in how clear it is.

Total points: The total sits below the league average mainly because these two play slower than a typical NBA game, and that drags more than the small lifts from the higher points per possession their games produce and from the absences on the injury report.
