Entering the final contest of a six-game road trip, the Kings will visit the Pistons at Little Caesars Arena.
This is their second meeting of the season, with the first going to Detroit 114-113 on December 26 in a game Sacramento played without Domantas Sabonis.
More recently, Detroit fell 109-103 to Memphis despite Ausar Thompson’s 18-point, 11-rebound (season-high) outing on 7-9 shooting. The Pistons played without Jalen Duren and Tobias Harris, who are both questionable again. Detroit has now dropped 32 of its last 34 games without Duren.
Sacramento upset Cleveland 120-113 at Rocket Arena on Sunday, powered by Sabonis’ 27-point, seven-assist display on 11-15 shooting, Zach LaVine’s 37 points, and DeMar DeRozan’s 28-point, seven-assist effort.

Set to meet for the fourth time this season, Philadelphia and Miami face off at Kaseya Center.
The Heat won each of the previous three matchups.
Last time out Miami fell 121-115 in overtime to Milwaukee despite Bam Adebayo’s 31-point, 12-rebound, five-assist showing. Tyler Herro was sidelined (questionable), and the Heat have now dropped five straight without him. That loss also ended Miami’s five-game winning streak in conference play.
Philadelphia is coming off a 114-109 defeat to Minnesota at Wells Fargo Center. Quentin Grimes led with 28 points and six triples, but the 76ers’ losing streak in conference play extended to 20 games. Andrew Wiggins is also listed as questionable for Miami.
