The Sacramento Kings will host the New Orleans Pelicans in their home finale from Golden 1 Center on Tuesday night. Having officially fallen out of play-in contention, the team will now look to pivot to chemistry reads, lineup variety and extended auditions for those who haven’t seen minutes.
New Orleans continues to assert themselves as a play-in juggernaut, having hit their stride without the likes of Zion Williamson for an entire season. Despite their sour start, the likes of Brandon Ingram and newly acquired CJ McCollum have breathed life into this team. As they still have seeding to fight for in the “pre” post season, this contest should be competitive on the oppositions’s side.
