OAKLAND, Calif. -- The surprising Sacramento Kings will attempt the unthinkable -- beating the Golden State Warriors three straight times on the Warriors' home court -- when the Pacific Division rivals tangle Saturday night.
Both teams are coming off impressive wins, with the Kings having triumphed 119-110 at Utah on Wednesday, two days before the Warriors ended a four-game skid with a 125-97 shellacking at home of the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday. The Warriors will have to endure the second night of a back-to-back against a team that's well rested. But Golden State will have a serious revenge motivation against a club that twice made the 90-mile drive toward the California coast last season and came away victorious.
