Their road trip will continue as they head to AT&T Center at 8:30 p.m. ET to face off against the San Antonio Spurs.

The Kings’ and the New Orleans Pelicans’ contest on Wednesday was up for grabs at halftime, but Sacramento was thoroughly outmatched 60-34 in the second half. Sacramento’s painful 125-95 loss to New Orleans might stick with them for a while. Point guard De’Aaron Fox (25 points) was the top scorer for Sacramento.
Meanwhile, the game between San Antonio and the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday was not a total blowout, but with the Spurs falling 118-105 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one. Despite their defeat, San Antonio got to see several of their players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. point guard Dejounte Murray, who had 21 points and eight assists, was the best among equals.
