Game Preview
Sacramento used a favorable schedule to gain consistency and win five games in a row. The new head coach, Doug Christie, managed to wake up the team, bring in some changes, and get back on the winning path much sooner than anyone believed. Plus, the team had several days to rest.
De’Aaron Fox might be back on the floor. Sources are suggesting that his hip is healing well, and he was already spotted at a practice this Wednesday. He is the No.6 scorer in the NBA with 26.2 points.
The Cs returned home with three wins in four road games. Their only loss was against the OKC Thunder, while wins came against the Timberwolves, the Rockets, and the Nuggets, who didn’t have Jokic in this event.
They shoot almost 50 threes each night, making 18.2, the most of any team in the league. That’s how they stretch the rival’s defense, and after that, Tatum and Brown penetrate and attack the rim.

Kings vs. Celtics Prediction
Sacramento is on the rise, but to be honest, right now, the Celtics are just too big of a challenge. They will push the tempo early on and eventually break the Kings, who will need to look for a win in the other place.
