KEY GAME INFORMATION
SACRAMENTO: GUARDS: With Isaiah Thomas out, DARREN COLLISON steps in at the point. He looked good backing up Chris Paul in L.A. and will benefit from a wide-open offense. But it's not clear if can he handle full-time minutes after flopping as a starter in Dallas . . . BEN McLEMORE has to get it going early if he's going to keep his starting job. There's raw talent, but McLemore has a reputation for fading into the background, and was wholly unimpressive last season . . . NIK STAUSKAS will push McLemore for minutes immediately. He'll be overmatched defensively at times, but he can shoot it and moves the ball well offensively . . . It seems like RAY McCALLUM will be a solid enough back-up point guard for the next few years . . . RAMON SESSIONS will push Collison for minutes and could eventually unseat him as the Kings' starter. FORWARDS: RUDY GAY is a low-efficiency player who needs the ball in his hands, but head coach Michael Malone seems willing to let him do his thing . . . Power forward is a black hole in Sacramento. JASON THOMPSON might open the season as the Kings' primary 4, though he struggled mightily in his first season under Malone . . . DERRICK WILLIAMS has never shed that 'tweener label. The team will try to milk some second unit productivity out of him . . . REGGIE EVANS will continue to turn flopping into an art form. An obnoxious art form . . . CARL LANDRY is a question mark as he works his way back from a torn meniscus . . . Tell the world OMRI CASSPI is coming home. CENTERS: He made some real strides under Malone last year, and DeMARCUS COUSINS' improved shot selection has finally made him one of the league's better big men. He spends much less time floating on the perimeter hoisting contested 18-footers.
NEW YORK: GUARDS: A huge upgrade over Raymond Felton, JOSE CALDERON's shooting and low turnover rate make him a good fit in the triangle offense. Defense will be an issue . . . His shot selection will always be laughable, but J.R. SMITH will still have the occasional blow-up game . . . IMAN SHUMPERT never looked right last season. He won't get bumped from the rotation, but he's in danger of getting just part-time minutes . . . He'll defend, and if his strong shooting as a rookie wasn't a fluke, TIM HARDAWAY JR. will push his way into the starting five . . . PABLO PRIGIONI is a poor man's Calderon . . . SHANE LARKIN has some long-term upside, but is unlikely to contribute this season. FORWARDS: The triangle offense should play to CARMELO ANTHONY's strengths and open things up a bit more than the iso-heavy system they ran under Mike Woodson. He'll be in the running for another scoring title . . . It's another year of ANDREA BARGNANI. The Knicks are too thin to not play him, but his defense is atrocious and he hasn't shot it well in years . . . AMAR'E STOUDEMIRE's monster deal expires after this season, and a trade is a possibility. In a best-case scenario, he can be effective for 20 minutes or so per night . . . Second-rounder CLEANTHONY EARLY has a chance to break into this rotation. He'll defend and pick up some hustle points . . . QUINCY ACY and TRAVIS OUTLAW will provide some much needed depth and energy for a team that can sometimes be lackadaisical on the court. CENTERS: With Tyson Chandler gone, it will be up to SAMUEL DALEMBERT to pick up the defensive slack. He's a capable rim protector and could be in for as much playing time as he's gotten in years . . . JASON SMITH is another defensive-minded big man. He's good in space but is not a polished shot blocker . . . COLE ALDRICH was good enough late last season to earn a bench spot in the 2014-15 campaign.

*Kings-Knicks Preview* ======================

By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer

Sacramento (16-27) at New York (8-37), 7:30 p.m. EDT

The Sacramento Kings are enduring their longest slide of the season after being on the receiving end of a spectacular shooting display in their latest defeat.

The Kings are in danger of allowing another scoring barrage with Carmelo Anthony expected back for the New York Knicks on Monday night at Madison Square Garden.

Sacramento (16-27) has lost six straight for the first time since a seven-game skid from Jan. 22-Feb. 1 of last year. The Kings had little chance of ending the skid against Golden State on Friday once Klay Thompson took over and put up 37 points in the third quarter of the Warriors' 126-101 win. Thompson set NBA records for points and 3-pointers (9) in a quarter and finished with 52 points while connecting on 11 of 15 from long range.

"I mean, the ball was barely touching his fingertips and he was releasing it. It's pretty hard to stop something like that," said Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, who had 28 points, 11 rebounds and three steals.

The Kings are among the league's worst defensive teams, giving up an average of 104.3 points on the season, including 107.8 over their last six games. They've surrendered 110.9 points per game while dropping four of the past seven meetings with New York (8-37), though they beat the Knicks 135-129 in overtime at home Dec. 27.

Sacramento, though, has struggled to contain Anthony, who has scored 36 points in each of the past three meetings. The All-Star forward added 11 rebounds in December and wound up four assists shy of a triple-double.

He's slated to be back after resting his sore left knee Saturday while New York shot 35.4 percent in a 76-71 loss to Charlotte that ended a three-game win streak. Anthony was averaging 25.3 points over the previous four games after missing six with knee trouble.

It's unclear if the Knicks will have starting point guard Jose Calderon back after he missed a game with a sore knee of his own. He's averaging 9.2 points, but has put up 12.0 over the past six meetings with Sacramento.

If Calderon is out, Tim Hardaway Jr. is likely to start after he had a season-high 25 points to go with six rebounds and five assists Saturday. He scored 19 against the Kings in December.

Cousins poured in 39 points while pulling down 11 boards in that meeting, and he had 19 and 15, respectively, in a 106-101 overtime win at MSG on Feb. 12.

The center is among the league leaders with 12.6 rebounds per game, and he's grabbing 13.9 off the glass while scoring 26.4 points over his past seven games.

While Cousins is doing his part, Rudy Gay is looking to remain on the court. The forward was scoreless in 12 minutes before getting ejected on two technical fouls Friday.

Gay was averaging 24.3 points on 48.1 percent shooting over the three prior games after missing one with a knee sprain. He connected on 12 of 21 shots from the field while scoring 29 points against the Knicks on Dec. 27.
