Sacramento got off to an ice-cold start this season, losing its first four games. The Kings have responded with 13 wins in their next 18 games, with their five losses coming to the Heat, Warriors, Hawks, Celtics and Suns. They have bounced back from the most recent three setbacks with wins over the Pacers, Clippers and Bulls. Sacramento won all three of those games by at least nine points, including a 110-101 win over Chicago on Sunday. Domantas Sabonis recorded the team’s first triple-double since the 2018-19 season with 11 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists. Malik Monk led the team in scoring with 20 points, marking the sixth time he has scored 20 points this season.

This is the Kings’ best 22-game start since the 2004-05 season when they started 15-7. They have been one of the top offensive teams in the NBA, ranked second in the league with 119.6 points per game. Star guard De’Aaron Fox leads the team with 23.1 points, 5.8 assists and 5.1 rebounds. Sabonis is averaging a double-double with 16.7 points and 11.0 rebounds, while Kevin Huerter is scoring 15.5 points. Monk has come off the bench in every game this season, so he is certainly the sixth man on the team. Sacramento is facing a Milwaukee defense that ranks third in the NBA, allowing 107.8 points per game.
