The Sacramento Kings kick off their Las Vegas Summer League schedule with a battle against the Phoenix Suns.  This article details how to watch that contest.

Las Vegas Summer League kicks off on July 7 and the opening evening nightcap is a battle between the Sacramento Kings and the Phoenix Suns.  The Kings bring a stacked roster to Vegas.  Skal Labissiere and De’Aaron Fox headline what looks to be a deep and dangerous team for this competition.

Serial lottery picker Phoenix also brings a talented roster to Sin City.  Marquese Chriss, Dragan Bender, Josh Jackson, and Tyler Ulis highlight this Suns squad.

The Kings’ player to watch tonight is Skal Labissiere.  He came back to Vegas to dominate the competition and solidify his role as the starting four in Sacramento, but standing in his way are three top ten selections in the last two seasons.  Expect Chriss, Bender, and Jackson to attempt to take Labissiere out of the game in what should be a fantastic matchup to watch.

Let us roll into how to watch tonight’s Vegas Summer League contest between the Sacramento Kings and the Phoenix Suns.

Start Time

The contest starts at approximately 10:30 pm Eastern or 7:30 pm Pacific time on July 7.
