Sacramento Kings: How to watch vs. LA Clippers in Vegas SL
By Tyler Watts
The Sacramento Kings continue their Las Vegas Summer League trip against the LA Clippers on July 8 and here is all the information you need to watch that contest.
The Sacramento Kings began their Las Vegas Summer League on July 7, and it quickly became a day to forget. The Kings trailed early against the Suns in the battle of top draft choices. The game spiraled out of control during a ten point third quarter for Sacramento. The cherry on top was a Marvin Bagley III injury in the fourth quarter.
Moving forward quickly, the Kings face the LA Clippers on Sunday in the second of a back-to-back. Bagley III is out with a hip/groin injury, so Sacramento will be a little short handed in this contest. Expect the Kings to rely heavily on Harry Giles and Justin Jackson to carry the scoring load. That forces both players out of their comfort zones slightly and could make for a long night.
The Clippers roster features two 2018 lottery selections and plenty of intriguing young players, though. Expect a good show tonight and here is how to watch all the events play out.

Final thoughts
The Sacramento Kings take on the LA Clippers in their second of the Las Vegas Summer League. The Marvin Bagley III injury puts a damper on the Kings parade, but this is a winnable contest. The Clippers lost their opening game and are light on frontcourt players. Sacramento will struggle to score the ball and space the floor again, so the contest is a difficult one to peg.
Harry Giles has been the Kings most impressive player so far. After sitting out an entire season, the rust is finally coming off, and the 20-year-old is showing a plethora of skills that should have any fan excited. Giles looks fantastic on the defensive end, and his offensive game is above and beyond the expectations. Keep both eyes on how Harry Giles performs this evening against the Clippers.
