The Sacramento Kings play host to the Oklahoma City Thunder at Golden 1 Center on Wednesday.

The Thunder (11-12) come into this matchup winning five of their last six games which is easily their best stretch of the season. Some of the wins in that span are really impressive too, grabbing three road wins all against Western Conference opponents. This is something that fans have been waiting for all season though, as they have the talent to beat anyone on any given night. Many people counted this team out when they started with a 7-11 record but this recent run shows just how good they can be when everyone is clicking. While there have been a ton of trade rumors surrounding this team, look for veterans like Chris Paul and Steven Adams to hang around if the winning ways continue.

The Kings (10-13) haven't had a ton of bright spots this season but the most recent victory is definitely one to savor. Going into Houston and defeating a dominant Rockets team is impressive on its own but getting it done with a buzzer-beater makes it even sweeter. That marked Sacramento's second-straight win and fans are hopeful that it's a sign of things to come. Starting the season 0-5 will kill anyone's confidence but it's encouraging to see them playing so much better right now. What's even more promising is the fact that they've won these last two games with De'Aaron Fox and Marvin Bagley III both sidelined, with both guys expected to return sometime this month. Getting those two back would be a huge boost and we can't count this team out until they're at full boar.

Sacramento won the season series over Oklahoma City last season, 3-1. That followed up a 3-1 series win by the Thunder the year before.
