In a bizarre night where both teams were missing their best players, the Sacramento Kings defeated the Golden State Warriors on November 5th to get themselves back in the win column, and now it’s time for some NBA Cup action.
Who: Sacramento Kings (3-5) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (8-1)
Where: Golden 1 Center, Sacramento, CA
When: 7:00 PM PT / 10:00 PM ET
Watch: NBCSCA / League Pass
The NBA Cup is here! How exciting? The Kings and Thunder share Group A with the Suns, Jazz, and Timberwolves. Until tonight, only two teams have playing in Group A thus far: the Suns defeated the Jazz.
The Kings played the Thunder tough earlier in the season before ultimately losing 107-101. Here’s a nice little opportunity for some revenge. OKC will be without Jalen Williams, and Lu Dort is questionable. For the Kings, Zach LaVine is off the injury report, which is a great sign. Domantas Sabonis is still listed as questionable, so we’ll see. Keegan Murray is still out.
Prediction: Kings 113, Thunder 105
