Sacramento Kings vs Indiana Pacers

How To Watch:

Date: Friday, February 3rd

Game Time: 7:00 pm EST

Venue: Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis, Indiana

Record: Kings (29-21), Pacers (24-29)

Things To Know:

-The Pacers have gone 1-9 over their last ten contests overall, including dropping four straight.

-The Kings enter having gone 7-3 over their last ten games, winning two straight. 

-Sacramento is 13-10 on the road this season while Indiana is 16-11 at home. 

Why Sacramento Can Win

The Kings enter this game without the services of De’Aaron Fox so they will need their other star in Domantas Sabonis to up his game tonight. Sabonis was just named to the All-Star team so he likely wants to show that the node was a valid one. Sacramento has an explosive offense that should be able to exploit an average at best Pacers defense. Using their offense to win this game may be the recipe for success for the Kings tonight.

Why Indiana Can Win

The Kings are going to be without their star point guard De’Aaron Fox for this game and the Pacers should be able to take advantage. It may be difficult for the Kings to win this game without Fox and the Pacers just got their star guard in Tyrese Haliburton back last night. However he is questionable for this game and if he can’t go then Pacers will need guys like Myles Turner and Buddy Hield to step things up.
