    SAN ANTONIO SPURS @ SACRAMENTO KINGS >>>> OVER 188.5 -110
    San Antonio at Sacramento 10:30 pm EDT Western Conference First Round Spurs lead, 3-2

    The San Antonio Spurs want to play their next home game against the Dallas Mavericks.

    The top-seeded Spurs can close things out against the eighth-seeded Sacramento Kings in Game Six of their best-of-seven series of the Western Conference first-round matchup on Friday at Arco Arena.

    The Spurs can make their 10th semifinal appearance in the last 11 years and reduce the period of rest for the fourth-seeded Mavericks, who advanced after a 102-76 rout of the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday to complete a four-game sweep.

    If San Antonio advances, it will host Dallas in Games One and Two of the West Semifinals.

    Thanks to 27, 24 and 21 points from Manu Ginobili, Tim Duncan and fellow All-Star Tony Parker, respectively, the Spurs posted a 109-98 victory over the Kings in Game Five on Tuesday for a 3-2 advantage in the series.

    Bruce Bowen scored 16 points and Michael Finley added 10 off the bench for San Antonio, which shot 57 percent (39-of-68) overall.

    In order to force a decisive Game Seven, Sacramento will need another strong effort from Bonzi Wells, who collected 38 points and 12 rebounds in Tuesday's loss. He is leading the team in points (24.4) and rebounds (12.2) in the series. Defensive stopper Ron Artest added 24 points and five steals.

    If necessary, Game Seven will be Sunday in San Antonio.
