Sacramento heads to Minnesota for conference showdown

Minnesota leads the Western Conference with a 16-9 record while Sacramento struggles at 6-19 and seeks revenge after an overtime loss in their last meeting.

  • Sunday, the Minnesota Timberwolves host the Sacramento Kings in Minneapolis at 7 p.m. EST for their fourth meeting this season.
  • With conference positioning on the line, Minnesota Timberwolves sit higher while Sacramento Kings struggle, and the Kings won the last meeting 117-112 in overtime on Nov. 25 led by DeMar DeRozan.
  • Statistically, the Minnesota Timberwolves shoot 48.0% from the field while Julius Randle shoots 49.9%, and the Sacramento Kings shoot 46.4% with 13.6 turnovers per game.
  • Availability will matter because both teams list multiple absences, including Mike Conley, Anthony Edwards, and Domantas Sabonis, while Minnesota's 1-3 close-game record and Donte DiVincenzo's 4.0 made 3-pointers could influence the outcome.
  • Player form suggests that Malik Monk has averaged 18.0 points over the last 10 games, adding scoring punch for the Sacramento Kings in this offensive matchup, The Associated Press reports using Data Skrive and Sportradar.
