It’s Prize Picks time! Game 82 is upon us. Kings need a win and then some help to avoid the 9/10 game. Plenty to choose from. Here is the link to join the fun, use the password KINGSBEAT: prizepicks.onelink.me/ivHR/KINGSBEAT Send me your picks! pic.twitter.com/qUA6oAdg3v – 3:12 PM

I stand corrected: Ties are broken this way for non-lottery draft order. Ties in the lottery mean the odds are split. If they finish with the same record, the Blazers, Spurs and Hornets will all have the same odds at a top-4 pick. – 3:07 PM
