With the Sacramento Kings hosting the Portland Trail Blazers tonight, what needs to be done by the purple and white for them to win this time around?

The Sacramento Kings are back to their winning ways as they have been the victors in their last two games. But they have a tough test ahead of them tonight as the Portland Trail Blazers are in town.

For the Kings, this is a good test for them. The Blazers currently have a record of 26-18 and are the fourth seed in the Western Conference standings. A win for Sacramento tonight would definitely have them closer into the playoff picture.

Not only would a victory tonight be a growing moment for the purple and white, but it would avenge the team as well. Not too long ago, these two clubs faced off against each other in the Golden 1 Center. The Kings looked like they had the win sealed in the final two minutes of the contest, but the Blazers came charging back to force overtime and eventually win the game.

For the Kings to win this time around, they need to bring their A-game. But with that being said, what in particular do they need to do in order to leave the Golden 1 Center tonight with the win?

Enjoy this slideshow which will showcase three things the Kings MUST do in order to beat the Blazers tonight.
