Preview, predictions, TV and injury report for tonight's Sacramento Kings v Dallas Mavericks game
NBATuesday, 26 March 2024 at 18:00
In a very short day of games this Tuesday in the NBA, Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks will face each other in one of the most important duels of the regular season for both teams. The stars of the game will be, of course, Luka Doncic and De'Aaron Fox.
The Mavs will be the visitors in a game where the outcome could be decisive in determining which team will qualify directly for this season's playoffs in the Western Conference. The Texas franchise is 7th in the Western Conference with a 42-29 record. In fact, right now they are tied with the same record as the Kings, who are 6th, just at the border of the playoff-free zone.
That is why the game is so important for both franchises. Sacramento faces the Los Angeles Clippers who, with a 44-27 record, are battling for home-court advantage with the New Orleans Pelicans, who just passed them in the West standings to move into 4th, albeit with the same record.
Expert predictions (Possible lineups and result)
The main predictions for tonight's game have the Sacramento Kings very slightly ahead of the Dallas Mavericks to win the game. However, this is a very difficult matchup to predict because of how evenly matched both teams are.
In addition, the potential lineups will be as follows:
- Kings: De'Aaron Fox, Keon Ellis, Keegan Murray, Harrison Barnes, Domantas Sabonis.
- Mavs: Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, Derrick Jones Jr, PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford.
