The New York Knicks will head out on the road to take on the Sacramento Kings at 10:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Golden 1 Center. Both teams come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.

Jalen Brunson continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, scoring 45 points.

Meanwhile, Sacramento earned a 120-107 win over the Lakers on Wednesday.

It was another big night for Domantas Sabonis, who dropped a triple-double on 17 points, 19 rebounds, and ten assists. He has been hot recently, having posted ten or more rebounds the last 22 times he's played.

New York's victory was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 39-27. Despite that those good results, the team's offense hasn't been rolling: across that stretch, they only averaged 107.3 points per game. As for Sacramento, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games, which provided a nice bump to their 38-27 record this season.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Knicks haven't given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.4 turnovers per game. However, it's not like the Kings struggle in that department as they've been averaging only 12.7 turnovers per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.

The Knicks are hoping to beat the odds on Saturday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. For those looking to play the spread, watch out: New York is playing as the underdog, but their 10-15-1 record against the spread as such isn't exactly encouraging.
