Kings v JackJumpers NBL betting tips & odds – Friday, December 30

Friday night NBL action tips off in Sydney when the Kings host the Tasmania JackJumpers at Qudos Bank Arena.

The JackJumpers are two games off the league leading Kings, and a win in this middle stage of the season would go a long way to helping the visitors avoid the play-in tournament ahead of the NBL Finals.

Sydney have struggled to find consistency and will be looking to break the win-loss-win rotation. Meanwhile, the JackJumpers have recorded impressive wins over the Hawks and Breakers and will be looking to make it three wins in a row.

The JackJumpers have won their last two matches against the Kings – however – the Kings have won three of the last five matches and return to Qudos Bank for the home court advantage. Their last match resulted in a win for the JackJumpers in Sydney, so the home side have further motivation to return to winning form and should cover the -8.5 point line to win paying $1.95.

Recent history between these two sides shows that point scoring has been particularly difficult. Both sides will continue this emphasis on defence as they build towards the NBL Finals. Look for this match to follow similar low scoring trends of recent history with this match finishing below 172.5 points paying $1.95.

The Sydney Kings have one of the most dynamic one-two punches in the NBL with Derrick Walton Jr and Xavier Cooks featuring in the top 15 scorers in the league. With Dejan Vasiljevic in support, the Kings can score from anywhere on the court consistently. This should see the Kings record the highest scoring quarter of the match paying $1.42.

Key matchup: Derrick Walton Jr vs Milton Doyle

The battle in the front court between Walton Jr and Doyle will be the highlight of the night when these two sides face off. Walton Jr is one of the best scorers of the league, however, it should not be lost on viewers how skilled Doyle is. He can take a game away from the opposition in a few positions by scoring from anywhere on the court or getting to the free throw line. Doyle will need to lead this JackJumpers side strongly if they are to cause an upset in Sydney and climb the NBL ladder further.
