Two of the best teams in the Western Conference meet Sunday in the final regular season game as the Denver Nuggets host the Sacramento Kings. The Nuggets lead the Western Conference while the Kings are third at 48-33. These two foes have split two games this season, but Denver covered both times. Tipoff is at 3:30 p.m. EDT at Ball Arena in Denver.
The Sacramento Kings have limped to the finish line, losing three of their last four games coming in. They sort of get a pass thought as they had locked up the third seed with little hope of catching the second seeded Grizzlies. So, there's not a lot to play for here.

On Friday night they lost to the Warriors 119-97, but the Warriors were still competing as they are trying to lock up a guaranteed playoff spot. So they rolled out a starting lineup that featured the likes of Alex Len, Davion Mitchell and Terrence Davis. Bench players Chimezie Metu and Trey Lyles led the way with 15 points each.
