The Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors will both face injury concerns as they meet Wednesday night at Golden 1 Center.
The Kings start a five-game homestand as they host the Warriors. Sacramento has struggled with a 2-5 season start, while Golden State comes off a victory against Phoenix the previous night in San Francisco and plays their second game in as many nights.
Sacramento is familiar with playing against shorthanded teams, having recently lost 107-101 to Oklahoma City on October 28 despite leading most of the game and missing key players Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams due to injury.
"Although the Kings have some injury questions, they have another opportunity to secure a win on Wednesday."
The Warriors enter the game with a reduced roster after their back-to-back schedule.
Author's summary: Both teams enter the game with absences and challenges, giving the Kings a chance to improve their record despite ongoing injury doubts.
