Sacramento suffering continues with no end in sight
The Sacramento Kings have become a destination for players who have been cast off from their teams for various reasons. The Kings have just one playoff appearance since 2006 and there does not appear a direction for things to change for the franchise in the near future. Sacramento ranks near the bottom of the league in defensive efficiency by Hollinger's NBA Team Statistics and is surrendering 121.2 points per game. The Kings have dropped 30 of their first 36 road games and own the worst overall record in the Western Conference. This will be the second of a back-to-back on the road for Sacramento, who visited Atlanta on Saturday.
Sacramento G Zach LaVine (19.2 ppg) was leading Sacramento in scoring before being lost for the season with a hand injury. DeMar DeRozan has missed just one game this season and ranks second on the club in scoring at 18.4 points per game. Veteran G Russell Westbrook brings the energy nightly with 15.2 points, 6.7 assists, and 5.4 rebounds for the Kings. Rookie C Maxime Raynaud (11.9 ppg) has shown plenty of promise and leads the team in rebounding (7.3 rpg).

Brooklyn experiencing growing pains
The Brooklyn Nets entered the season with the youngest roster in the NBA and have experienced plenty of growing pains. The Nets have accumulated plenty of draft capital and could be $50 million dollars below the salary cap this offseason. Brooklyn is the worst offensive team in the league by Hollinger's NBA Team Statistics and is scoring an anemic 106.2 points per contest. The Nets have just nine victories through their first 35 home games and have been eliminated from postseason contention. On Friday, Brooklyn was outscored by 16 points during the fourth quarter of a 116-99 road loss against Los Angeles.
Michael Porter Jr. has flourished in his first season in Brooklyn and is averaging a career-high 24.2 points per game. Porter Jr. also leads the Nets with 7.1 rebounds, but will likely be shut down for the remainder of the season with a hamstring strain. Noah Clowney (12.3 ppg) and Nic Claxton (11.8 ppg) provide versatility on defense while adding adequate scoring punch.
Key Injury Report for Brooklyn:
- Danny Wolf (out) - ankle
- Michael Porter Jr. (out) - hamstring
