2023-24 Season | Game #48 | Kings @ Cavs | Feb. 5, 2023 | 7:00 p.m.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Sixers were fined for not disclosing Joel’s injury the day of the Nuggets game. He should have been listed as Questionable with a knee injury. I suspect the Cavaliers and other teams will be careful to disclose potential issues.
 
Still banking on the fact that the Kings are playing their 7th game in 12 nights, all on the road, to be the deciding factor. They shoot the 3 about 44% of the time and with both Mobley and Allen as rim defenders they might shoot it even more. It's tougher to make 3's when your legs are tired.

They're a young team, however, with just one starter over 30 (Barnes is 31). The rest of their rotation is in the 23-27 age range. But they are playing their 3rd game in four nights.

I'm also counting on JBB to point out the mistakes made in the first game that allowed these guys to score 132 points, the most the Cavs have allowed all year. I expect they made adjustments in practice yesterday and the Kings won't be getting as many uncontested looks from the 3-point line. I'll be very surprised if they make twenty 3's tonight, or even close.
 
We didn’t have Okoro last time and didn’t get a chance much to play against Fox last year. Looking forward to watch Okoro on Fox tonight.

Key is making Fox uncomfortable at stints and don’t give easy 3s especially to Huerter and Murray.

I know this is a tough game but if our players keep playing on how their roles to be, I believe we can win it out assuming Allen is playing. May end up being the 2nd best win this season after the Clippers game.
Not sure it'd be in the top 5.

Clippers
Bucks (twice)
Philly
Denver
