How's Keegan Doing?

Kings pull within one game of the griz for 2nd in the West.
Getting the 2nd seed would be a dream... 1st round. .play the wolves rather than the Mavs?...yes,please.

Banchero put up 31 tonite...he is a super talent and a runaway ROY.

The drafters pretty much spot on assuming that Holmgren is as good as advertised. OKC could be great next year.

Banchero is putting up big numbers for a team that may or may not make the play-in for postseason. If Keegan breaks Donovan Mitchell's Rookie 3pt Record by hitting 37 more made 3's, and, if Sac wins in a 1st round playoff series, I'd go with Keegan.

You know, if the Kings don't show up on defense the rest of the season or even the playoffs, then I would really hate for all the progress on the offensive side go south like that, and ruin what's been a good season so far after the drought.

Wolves shooting with 9:04 to go:

22-32 (69%) from 2
19-34 (56%) from 3

Admittedly, the Kings have the 3rd most difficult schedule in the NBA but they have to defend, and especially defend their home floor. Man!

Keegan is stuck on the bench w/ 20 min played

Off the bench minutes:
19: Trey Lyles
7: Metu
14: kessler edwards

Kessler was that last minute trade acquisition where they thought he'd be mostly playing G League ball

Well, we're still in good shape. Still in 3rd place in the West. Flush the living hell out of this one and get ready for the Pelicans on Monday, and that BIG GAME on Thursday with the Knicks on TNT! :)

Didn’t look like himself. He looked hesitant, uninterested, and wasn’t going in for rebounds. Played more than he should have. Sick? Then again no one looked interested in playing D. So many uncontested 3’s.
 
Sac got blown out at the Pels last month 136-104. We need a strong effort tonight, especially defensively. All hands on deck. Be ready to contribute, bench. We need some momentum going forward. Protect home court, plz. DeAron Fox questionable tonight (Hamstring).

The Kings are 1 game behind 2nd place Memphis, which lost yesterday to the Clippers. The Kings, as we know, play New Orleans tonight on NBA TV. The Grizzlies play tomorrow evening at the Lakers. With a Kings win tonight, and a Grizzlies loss tomorrow at LA, the Kings would be in a 2nd place tie.
There are 19 games left in the regular season for the Kings. The Kings have the 3rd most difficult schedule in the League. The Kings are 19-13 at home and 18-13 on the road. Value home floor and get wins, because the remaining road games will be extra tough, where some teams are still in the hunt for the playoffs/play-ins.
