The Sacramento Kings host the New York Knicks in this inter-conference NBA clash on Thursday. Can the Kings sustain their recent winning momentum with a victory against the Knicks? Here is our prediction.
The Sacramento Kings have witnessed a dramatic turnaround in their last two games after a long winless run. From a seven-game losing streak, the Kings held off sixth-placed Houston Rockets in a bruising battle to secure a shock 111–98 victory.
This was followed by another unexpected win over fifth-placed Los Angeles Lakers in their last game. They shot 59% from the field and a staggering 63% from deep to subdue the Lakers 124–112. However, Doug Christie's side are winless in their last four NBA encounters against the New York Knicks, losing all four.
After a solid start to the season, the New York Knicks have found themselves grappling with a string of below-par performances lately. They bounced back with a 123–114 victory over Portland in their last game after a defeat to the Phoenix Suns.
However, the two-time NBA champions head into Thursday's clash with five defeats in their last seven games. This includes a poor 1–3 record in their last four road games.
