What to Know
The Sacramento Kings’ road trip will continue as they head out to face the Orlando Magic at 7:00 p.m. ET on March 23rd at Kia Center. Coming off a loss in a game the Kings were expected to win, they now face the more daunting task of proving themselves against unfavorable odds.
Last Thursday, Sacramento came up short against the Wizards and fell 109-102.
Meanwhile, the Magic came tearing into Thursday’s matchup with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 13.3 points) and they left with even more momentum. They enjoyed a cozy 121-106 victory over New Orleans. The victory came about thanks to a strong surge starting at the 4:39 mark of the first quarter, when the Magic were facing a 21-9 deficit.
Sacramento’s loss ended a three-game streak of away wins and brought them to 40-29. As for Orlando, they are on a roll lately: they’ve won ten of their last 12 matches, which provided a massive bump to their 42-28 record this season.
The Kings came out on top in a nail-biter against the Magic in their previous matchup back in January, sneaking past 138-135. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Kings since the team won’t have the home-court advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
