Game 22: Sacramento Kings (11-8) @ Phoenix Suns (12-9) | Friday | 7:00PM

[Saberestar]

Beal, KD, Allen and Damion Lee OUT.

Book is gonna be double teamed since the start of the game. We will need high scoring games from Gordon and Nurkic.

[King4Day]

Book needs a big game. Doubles or not, he has to find a way. And yes, the role players have to step up.
I expect a massive game from Little tonight

[sunsbg]

Kings will be lighting the beam today unfortunately. Fox and Book matchup as scoring PGs will bring some entertainment. Domas and Nurk as playmaking bigs is an interesting matchup too. After that it's advantage SAC in almost everything. Their bench is one of the deepest in the league with Monk favorite for 6th man probably. Lyles and Vezenkov can shoot. McGee and Len give them size advantage. A close loss I'll consider a win in this game.

Len is out so McGee is their only backup C.

McGee isn't the same player that he was a few years ago but his size could be a problem for Eubanks. Hopefully we can attack him on the move and take advantage of his low basketball IQ.

The Kings have a very nice starting lineup. Monk having a great year as 6th man. I don't think we beat them at any position except whatever position Book plays.

This one is probably going to be pretty rough. I was hoping at the very least to have Grayson Allen playing, but without him, Beal, and KD I don't see it very likely the Suns come out on top. Though perhaps other guys step up like Little and Goodwin. Maybe even Bol Bol gets some run.

Booker I think has been playing hurt the last few weeks and refuses to just rest. Not that big of a deal but Booker is shooting 38.5% from 3-10 foot distance for the season. He hasn't shot this low of a percentage at this distance since 2017-18 season.

Booker 1st 6 games of the season:
29 points per game, 10 assists, 5.6 rebounds with 51/44/94 shooting splits. (0.2 steals and blocks per game also)
Booker last 6 games of the season:
26 points per game, 7 assists, 7 rebounds with 43/37/94 shooting splits. (1 steal and 0.7 blocks per game also)

Wow, I didn't realize he was shooting THAT bad from 3-10 ft. That's usually one of his best areas, if not his best.

How can they light the beam when they’re playing on the road in our arena?

[Mulhollanddrive]

Booker Gordon Okogie Bates-Diop Nurkic
Goodwin Little Watanabe Metu Eubanks

That's not alot of help

[Calvin Klein]

Don’t panic. Book is here.

[bwgood77]

They just said Beal had a full practice yesterday and Vogel is encouraged and also excited for how good this team is going to be.

[Qwigglez]

Booker looking to attack the basket, which is good. Kings have no interior defense.

[Saberestar]

3/3 Book
2/2 Gordon

Nice start

[sunskerr]

Smart play from Nurk to quickly get into position on Saboner there.

[Saberestar]

Nurkic playing well.

[Qwigglez]

Nurkic has been playing well lately, but I get so frustrated when he misses those close putbacks.

[SkyBill40]

Just got home and turned on the game to see more of the usual: sloppy, lazy play leading to bad shots and turnovers.

Great.

We missed three open shots. ****.Tied game.

[schnakenpopanz]

Suns look like a lottery team without Booker.

[schnakenpopanz]

The arena is so quiet so that you can hear all the payers complaining
