Before the NBA indefinitely suspended its season, the Sacramento Kings were on a roll. After the All-Star break, the Kings had the fourth-best record in the NBA (7-3), the eighth-best offensive rating (113.2), 11th-best defensive rating (110.1) and eighth-best net rating (3.1).
Their inspired play put them in the conversation for the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference. As it stands, 3.5 games separate the Kings from the No. 8 seed Memphis Grizzlies — the same number of games that the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans trail by.
