Kings vs Lakers

If you would have told me the Sacramento Kings would have been comfortably over 0.500 at this point of the season, I would have laughed at you. Well look.

[Keegan Murray](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/keegan-murray) [Harrison Barnes](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/harrison-barnes) [Kevin Huerter](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/kevin-huerter) [De’Aaron Fox](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/deaaron-fox) Losing Davis hurts, as Davis allows the defense to stretch out while anchoring him down low and securing boards, but they can recoup his loss by crashing the boards and limiting second chance opportunities. Speaking of Fox, this team lives and dies by his production. While the King’s defense has lacked, it has been their offense that has carried the torch for their success. If the Kings can get Westbrook into forcing low quality shots at the rim and securing defensive rebounds, this severely limits the Lakers scoring opportunities throughout the course of the game while the Kings slowly build on a lead. This script should be no different and potentially allow the Kings to shift their focus more on LeBron’s scoring output. Even though defense is expected to be weak on both ends, I’m taking the under as this number has simply climbed way too high. This will be an intriguing matchup as the Lakers sudden success was off the back of Anthony Davis who was the most dominant player in the NBA over the past few weeks, but he is now sidelined with an injury. If you would have told me the Sacramento Kings would have been comfortably over 0.500 at this point of the season, I would have laughed at you.
