The Sacramento Kings enter Sunday 1.5 games ahead of the Indiana Pacers for the worst record in the league with 18 games remaining and an old friend, the Chicago Bulls, in town.
Who: Sacramento Kings (14-15) vs. Chicago Bulls (26-37)
Where: Golden 1 Center, Sacramento, CA
When: 6:00 PM PT / 9:00 PM ET
Watch: NBCSCA / League Pass
The Chicago Bulls aren’t technically eliminated from the Eastern Conference play-in race quite yet, but they arguably have more to gain from tanking this game out than the Kings do. I’m expecting Chicago to win, because Kings, but we are officially in the softest stage of Sacramento’s season. This contest is dangerously winnable.
Prediction: Kings 117, Bulls 105.
