The Sacramento Kings have been inconsistent lately, losing two of their last three outings. They are off a 123-119 road loss on Wednesday to Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks, which was after a 121-103 win against the New Orleans Pelicans last Tuesday.

However, the Kings are still an offensive force. Matter of fact, they have the best-scoring offense in the league, generating 121.3 points per game.

De’Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis, Kevin Huerter, Harrison Barnes, Keegan Murray, and Malik Monk are providing rich scoring contributions to Sacramento’s offense which is also second in the league overall this season with a 49.6 FG%.

Sacramento will hope to take advantage of the Warriors’ struggles when they play on the road. Golden State has only 9-30 in road games this campaign.

If the Golden State Warriors can secure a position amongst the top 6 in the Western Conference standings, they will need to win this game against Sacramento. 

The Warriors are off a 136-125 victory at home over the Oklahoma City Thunder, where Stephen Curry blew up for 34 points, while Jordan Poole added 30 points in a sport start caused by Klay Thompson being a late scratch.

Thompson is expected to return to duty for today’s matchup with the Kings. Regardless of his presence, the Warriors will want to exploit Sacramento’s suspect defense that allows 118.2 points per game on a defensive 56.2 eFG%, 26 and 27th in the league, respectively.
