Fresh off a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night, the Sacramento Kings will return to Golden 1 Center to take on the Atlanta Hawks in their first meeting of the season.
Sacramento is looking for their second victory of the New Year, while Atlanta is chomping at the bit for a win following their franchise star’s career-high performance.
On Monday night, fourth-year point guard Trae Young dropped a career-high 56 points in a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. Yet another team ravaged by injuries and players in health and safety protocols, the Hawks are as desperate for a victory as the Kings.
