Another day means more Sacramento Kings basketball and plenty of storylines to follow as we head into 65.

Saturday is a big day for the Sacramento Kings, as they’ve got an early tip-off against the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden at 12 p.m. ET in a game that’s essential for them to keep their postseason dreams alive.

Fortunately for the Kings, however, the New York Knicks are an NBA-worst 13-52 — a record that’s on pace to become the sixth worst single-season winning percentage this decade. The Knicks also, somewhat surprisingly, have more wins on the road than they do on the road, albeit just by one. Both of these things bode well for the Kings chances on Saturday, it also doesn’t hurt that the Sacramento Kings already beat the Knicks this week.

Still, there’s plenty of storylines for fans to focus on today, both on and off the court, especially as it pertains to two of their young big-men and, you guessed it — the playoffs race.
