With the Sacramento Kings playing against the Chicago Bulls tonight, which three players on the purple and white need to have a good performance for their team to win?

The Sacramento Kings will finish their four-game road trip tonight as they will visit Chicago to face off against the Bulls.

For the Kings, they are currently the ninth seed in the Western Conference with a record of 13-12. A win tonight will surely give them needed momentum before they return to the Golden 1 Center to host the Minnesota Timberwolves.

As for the Bulls, it has been a nightmarish season so far. Entering the campaign, Chicago seemed like a team on the rise due to their young talent. But with 27 games into the season, they have a record of 6-21 and have recently fired their head coach Fred Hoiberg.

Tonight’s match is not a must-win game for Sacramento, but it is more like a “you better win” type of game. The Bulls have been absolutely terrible this season as they are the last seed in the Eastern Conference. And since the team fired their head coach, they have gotten worse. Being in the Western Conference, the Kings do not get many winnable games on their schedule, so this is a game that they should be able to win easily if they play to their standards.

With that being said, what do the Kings need to rely on in order to leave this game with a win? In my opinion, three players for Sacramento need to have a good performance for it to happen. Check this slideshow out showcasing those players.
