Past Record Won't Deter Kings

Sacramento lost 2 previous games against Clippers, but form is on their side this time
-
LOS ANGELES - A pair of teams intent on improving their National Basketball Association (NBA) play-off prospects in the Western Conference will meet as the Los Angeles Clippers play host to the Sacramento Kings on March 9 (March 10, Singapore time) in Inglewood, California.
The Clippers (34-29) enter the game eighth in the conference standings, while the Kings are a half-game behind in ninth.
While the Clippers are trying to get back on track after a rough run of eight road games in which they went 2-6, the Kings have found a flow with a reworked roster while going 5-1 since Feb 24.
The Kings are coming off an emotional 127-109 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on March 7 in De'Aaron Fox's return to Sacramento, after he was traded on Feb 3, following eight seasons with his former team.
A mixed reception of boos and cheers from Kings fans was followed by Fox scoring 16 points for the Spurs, but it came on six-of-17 shooting, including zero of six from three-point range.
