What channel is Brooklyn Nets vs Sacramento Kings on tonight? Time, TV Schedule & Live stream | NBA Season 2020-2021
The star-studded Brooklyn Nets take on the Sacramento Kings in an enticing 2020-21 NBA season matchup at Golden 1 Center.
The Brooklyn Nets have climbed to third in the East with the help of two straight wins. Kevin Durant made his return after being asked to stay out of action due to Covid protocols. However, he has now been ruled out yet again, this time due to a hamstring problem.
The Nets found their groove not too long ago as they were on a losing streak of three games before returning to winning ways. Steve Nash will be hoping Kyrie Irving and James Harden get the job done in the absence of KD.
The Sacramento Kings, on the other hand, were on a roll before losing three straight games heading into this match. The Kings will be glad Kevin Durant won't be featuring as they aim to get back to winning ways. The Sacramento Kings sit 11th in the stacked Western Conference and have an overall record of 12-14 this season.
The Brooklyn Nets will be the favorites despite not having Kevin Durant as they have looked much better than the Sacramento Kings in the last couple of games.
This season has been unpredictable for the Nets, though, as they have been shocked by some of the lower-ranked teams in the past. The Sacramento Kings have hit a slump recently but are capable of pulling an upset. Steve Nash will be wary of this and will demand his side be more solid defensively to avoid a 13th defeat of the campaign.
James Harden scored 19 points and dished out 16 assists while Kyrie Irving scored 23 points to lead the Brooklyn Nets to a blowout victory over the Warriors on the road. De'Aaron Fox was once again the best player for the Sacramento Kings in their last game against the Grizzlies, as his effort of 23 points, 9 assists went in vain.
