The Sacramento Kings are preparing to face the Golden State Warriors in their upcoming match at Chase Center. The Kings have three games remaining this season, facing the Warriors twice and the Trail Blazers once.
The Warriors have already secured their play-in position. The Trail Blazers could potentially move from 9th to 8th.
Curry’s Return and Warriors’ Chemistry
Stephen Curry has recently returned from a knee injury that kept him out for February and March. He has been listed as probable for tonight’s game.
Despite their play-in position being secured, the Warriors have something to play for: chemistry. Curry looked fantastic against the Houston Rockets in his first game back.
Kings Eye Lottery Position
The Kings need to lose their remaining games to stay in contention with the Utah Jazz for a higher lottery position. The Kings currently hold a 21-58 record, while the Warriors are 36-42.
The Kings’ remaining schedule includes two games against the Warriors and one against the Trail Blazers. It is possible that the last game will mean nothing to Portland.
