Big poster between the Phoenix Suns and the Sacramento Kings in the Western Conference of the NBA. The meeting will be held at the Footprint Center this Monday at 2:00 a.m. After a very good run last season, Phoenix is starting again on the same basis with a record of 8 victories for only one defeat. As a result, the franchise occupies 2nd place in the rankings and finds itself very well positioned to secure a place in the playoffs. Mike Budenholzer’s men had a great comeback to win 119-125 against the Los Angeles Clippers. They then outclassed the Portland Trail Blazers in the first three quarters, then managed their lead in the 4th quarter to win 103-97. The task was much more difficult against the Philadelphia 76ers, where Kevin Durant and his teammates won 118 to 116. The scenario is almost the same against the Miami Heat, but the franchise is still solid in the final minutes to win 115-112. The Suns had a client in the Dallas Mavericks for their last game. However, they had already folded the match at half-time and once again managed their lead to win 113-114.
The Sacramento Kings, for their part, are experiencing a little more difficulty at the start of the season, occupying 9th place in the Western Conference. The franchise is actively fighting for a place in play-in with a record of 5 wins and 4 losses. Without much surprise, Mike Brown’s men easily defeated the Atlanta Hawks, 115-123. However, they greatly disappointed by losing 131-128 after overtime on the floor of the Toronto Raptors. The narrow 110-111 victory at the Miami Heat was clearly not reassuring given the performance displayed during the last two quarters. Domantas Sabonis and his teammates take advantage of another face-to-face with the Toronto Raptors to obtain a precious victory 122-107. However, they again committed a misstep in front of their home crowd against the Los Angeles Clippers, losing by a score of 98-107. The team struggled greatly offensively, scoring only 17 points in the second quarter.
