What you need to know about the Knicks

The Knicks won every quarter of their game against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday, which resulted in a 121-102 victory. Power forward Julius Randle had his second consecutive 30-point performance and finished with 33 points in addition to seven rebounds. RJ Barrett was the next-best scorer for New York, finishing with 26 points, seven rebounds and four assists. Center Mitchell Robinson cleared the boards with 13 rebounds in the win.

The Knicks haven't been a great 3-point shooting team this season, knocking down just 32.2% of their attempts in 2022. Things could pick up a little bit on Sunday, as the Kings have allowed opponents to hit 37.5% of their shots from deep over the last three contests. Obi Toppin has played just 17 minutes per game, but he has been the team's most consistent shooter from beyond the arc at 35.1%. 

What you need to know about the Kings

Things were all tied up 49-49 at the half against the Cavaliers this past Friday, but Sacramento stepped up in the second half for a 106-95 win. Center Domantas Sabonis had another big night with a double-double on 18 points and 18 rebounds to go with six assists. Harrison Barnes scored a game-high 20 points and hit 55.6% of his shots.

The Kings could potentially be without starting point guard De'Aaron Fox (foot) and Keegan Murray (thumb). Fox is the team's leading scorer with 22.8 points per game, but missed the team's last game against Cleveland. Murray has picked things up over his last six games, and the rookie has averaged 15.3 points with 4.2 rebounds per start during that stretch.
