After an ugly start to the 2019-’20 NBA season, the Sacramento Kings have somehow crawled back in to the playoff race. They have been able to do this despite the injuries to and shifting of the front court, and find themselves three games back of the 8th and final playoff spot as of Monday morning.
After losing 15 of 18 games in December and January, the Kings have now been the victors in 11 of their last 16 contests. There have been plenty of factors that have contributed to the recent string of success for Sacramento, from personnel changes to shifts in the rotation.
