Tuesday’s NBA slate features the Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns as the closing match of the night. This is the third of five scheduled meetings between the clubs this season with Sacramento up 2-0.
Both clubs last played on Sunday with Sacramento losing a 142-143 heartbreaker in overtime to the Bucks while the Suns beat the Blazers 127-116..
Season Series
Last season the teams played four times with each team winning once on the road and once at home. Phoenix holds the all-time record between the squads with 143 victories in 247 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Monday, January 15th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Tuesday, January 16th.
Sacramento Kings
Mike Brown was heated after the loss to the Bucks. He was ejected from the game after picking up a second technical then showed up to the post-game presser with a laptop to demonstrate why he felt the officiating crew wasn’t calling the game the same on both ends of the hardwood.
Like Darko Rajakovic last week this will undoubtedly end up costing the head coach a healthy chunk of coin because the league doesn’t stop to consider who is right and wrong — they simply don’t tolerate any comments about officiating (although it’s long past time Adam Silver made strides to improve this part of the game).
Kings Stats
To this point in the season, the Kings rank 14th offensively (116.4), and 17th defensively (115.9), with a net differential of plus +0.5 also ranking 17th overall.
Sacramento rides the middle ground against the spread with a 21-18 performance through 39 games.
Kings Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Keegan Murray, SF (questionable—hip)
Phoenix Suns
At the halfway point of the season, the Suns remain an enigma simply because the Big Three have barely spent any time together on the hardwood. All three are finally healthy so the second half will be spent integrating Bradley Beal into the lineup and building chemistry.
Because he missed so much time it’s hard to decipher much about how good this Suns squad is – – or can be. Up to this point in the 2023-24 campaign, Phoenix doesn’t have an identity and seems to be extremely weak in their depth but a core talented Big 3 can erase a lot of that illusion.
Suns Stats
As of this posting, Phoenix is tied for 11th offensively (117.0) and ranks i6th defensively (115.5) while their net differential is plus +1.6 which ranks 12th overall.
The Suns have struggled against the spread with a 14-24-1 record through 39 contests.
Suns Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Bol Bol, C (downgraded to OUT— foot)
- Damion Lee, SG (out indefinitely — knee)

Free Sacramento Kings vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction:
Entering this match the Kings are seeded fifth while the Suns hold the eighth seed but are just two games back of Sacramento. This could end up being a first-round series so all lessons learned in the season will be invaluable in preparing for that possibility.
Although the Kings are up 2-0 this is the first time they’ll see the full complement of the Suns starting five. Beal missed both games while Jusuf Nurkic and Kevin Durant each missed one.
Both clubs have obvious weaknesses coupled with big-time core talents but the depth of the Kings is why I’m taking the points.
