The Sacramento Kings will play against the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight. Which three players from the purple and white should the fans be on the lookout for during the match?

The Sacramento Kings will continue their homestand tonight as they will host the Minnesota Timberwolves. Currently, the Kings are in a bit of a slump. After winning five straight games, Sacramento has dropped their last two matches. They are hoping to turn back to their winning ways with the Timberwolves in town.

The Timberwolves are also a team that cannot get on the win column as of late. The team from Minneapolis is recently coming off a gut-wrenching loss against the Los Angeles Lakers which currently has them now at a record of 4-8 for the season. Kind of a disastrous start for the Wolves considering the expectations they had prior to the start of the regular season.

This game will be an exciting one for any NBA fan to watch and for many reasons. The first reason is that both teams desperately need a win in order to gain momentum going forward, so expect the best out of both squads tonight. Not only that, but this match will also feature some top-quality young players who have been making noise around the league.

For Minnesota, they have the duo of Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins who have been top contributors for their team for the last couple of years. For Sacramento, guys like De’Aaron Fox, Willie Cauley-Stein, and Buddy Hield seem to be on their way to making their mark in the NBA.

Obviously, it will please Kings fans if their team can win what will be a tough match tonight. In my opinion, if the purple and white are going to be successful, they need these three players to have good performances.

Let us find out who those players are!
