Friday night NBA sees an interconference battle between two squads trying to prove they deserve spots in the postseason.
The Sacramento Kings are in a dog fight out West for the No. 8 spot, while the Indiana Pacers are simply hoping to keep their top-eight spot out East where parity is surprisingly strong among the conference’s second- and third-tier squads.
*All statistics, rankings, standings and records are accurate as of this writing at 5:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, Jan. 26.
Sacramento Kings
The Sacramento Kings enter this game scoring 102.8 points per game. That number is good enough to place them in the lower half of the league at No. 22.
Although the team as a whole isn’t dangerous in terms of offensive potency, Indiana will likely struggle containing DeMarcus Cousins.

Not only does the center lead the team in scoring at 28 points a night, but he puts the ball in the basket in a variety of ways.
He is as physical around the rim as anybody in the game, and he has evolved his game out to the three-point line.
Defensively, Sacramento 105.6 points per contest. For those keeping track, that number is only good enough for 19th across the Association.

Against Indy, look for the Kings to do everything in their power to force Paul George into bad looks.
They may take the strategy of giving George what he wants and stopping the role players; however, the Pacers role players are good enough to win games and make a difference.
Stopping George must be priority No. 1…and since truly stopping him likely isn’t an option, making him uncomfortable both on the perimeter and in the paint is the next best option.
Indiana Pacers
The Indiana Pacers scoring 105.4 points per contest. That number puts them smack dab in the middle of the league at 15th.
Defensively, the Pacers are giving up 106.8 points per night, which is only good enough for 23rd in the Association.
Chances are, this is going to be a high-scoring game.

Two inconsistent offenses make that a difficult concept to swallow, but the defenses are lowsy and there should be plenty of opportunity for role players to get involved, as Indy is likely going to take the same approach as the Kings:
Stop the start; a.k.a., stop Boogie Cousins.
