Brooklyn Nets vs Sacramento Kings Preview - 12-11-2023
The Nets will kick off their Western swing by visiting Sacramento Kings on Monday night. Brooklyn enters this game riding a three-game win streak after defeating Washington Wizards 124-97 at Barclays Center last Friday, led by Mikal Bridges with 21 points while Cameron Thomas and Day'Ron Sharpe each contributed 17. Spencer Dinwiddie will likely serve as backup point guard again, though Joey Joseph might miss his fourth consecutive game due to ankle pain; with Joey out, Yogi Ferrell could see increased playing time on offense.
On the other hand, Sacramento has won its two games since falling on Nov. 25. While their offense stalled late in their victory against Chicago, a 10-0 run by the end of the third quarter gave Sacramento an unlikely 117-114 lead and featured 20 points from De'Aaron Fox - who also collected 10 rebounds - scoring 20.
The Kings have found an effective balance between scoring and defense, ranking ninth in scoring offense (116.4 points per game) and 17th in defensive efficiency (allowing 113.1 points per contest). Harrison Barnes leads with 6.2 rebounds per game while De'Aaron Fox adds 21.4 points and 6.1 assists. Harrison Barnes is their leader when it comes to rebounding while De'Aaron Fox can provide 21.4 points with 6 assists and 6 steals per contest. Royce O'Neale adds athleticism on offense while his Baylor product can hit open 3-pointers as well.
