Sacramento Kings podcast with Barbara Mason:

1.The Kings are on a disastrous course losing nine games in a row and Sunday they were looking to break this streak when they took on the Washington Wizards another struggling team with much the same record as Sacramento.

2.Not much was going right for the Kings in Sunday’s game but they got a chance to turn it around with two great performances from Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan.

3.The Kings had a slow start in the game which set them behind the eight ball from the get go and they got next to nothing from the bench plus the absence of Domantas Sabonis and Russell Westbrook did not help either.

4. In a matchup of two last-place teams what went so terribly wrong for Sacramento, did it all come down to just the offense.

5.The Kings now head home to take on another struggling team the Memphis Grizzlies in the hopes of putting an end to this horrible streak the team is going through right now.
