The Sacramento Kings will travel to the Big Apple to take on the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden on Sunday (December 11).
The Kings and Knicks are relatively healthy heading into the contest, which few teams across the NBA can boast. The Kings are playing solid basketball and are looking to make a playoff push out West.
The Knicks, meanwhile, are .500 and continue establishing their identity to make a run in the Eastern Conference. The PG match-up between De'Aaron Fox and Jalen Brunson could be crucial in the contest.
