KEY GAME INFORMATION
SAN ANTONIO: GUARDS: TONY PARKER may not be ageless, as he'll sit a handful of games during the regular season. But when the 32-year-old is on the court, he still gets into the lane whenever he wants . . . He can't do anything off the dribble, but DANNY GREEN is one of the league's elite spot-up shooters . . . MANU GINOBILI will need some regular-season maintenance as far as playing time goes, especially coming off a stress fracture in his leg. He's essential for the postseason . . . MARCO BELINELLI will have a significant role off the bench due to his ability to defend, shoot and do some ball-handling . . . It might be a lost regular season for NBA Finals star PATTY MILLS as he works his way back from shoulder surgery. He hopes to make his season debut in mid-January . . . CORY JOSEPH will pick up a few more minutes while Mills is out. FORWARDS: There's plenty of buzz surrounding KAWHI LEONARD after his Finals MVP performance, though it seems unlikely they'll make him the centerpiece of this offense as long as their vets are still going strong . . . Thirty-eight-year-old TIM DUNCAN is still one of the better power forwards in the league. Just like Parker and Ginobili, he'll take the occasional DNP-CD. His rebounding and shot-blocking rates continue to surge. The only real disappointment last season was that his FT shooting slid back towards his sub-70% career mark . . . JEFF AYRES is one of the new anonymous big men at the end of the San Antonio bench. He'll see a handful of starts when Gregg Popovich rests his star players . . . KYLE ANDERSON is too much of a defensive liability to see major minutes as a rookie, but his versatile skill set suggests he could be Boris Diaw's heir apparent . . . MATT BONNER will hoist some threes during the regular season. CENTERS: Popovich rotates his centers depending on the situation. TIAGO SPLITTER, the more traditional 5, will likely take the bulk of the minutes again . . . BORIS DIAW will play when the offense gets stagnant, especially when opponents go small.
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.

*Spurs-Kings Preview* =====================

By JEFF MEZYDLO STATS Senior Writer

San Antonio (34-23) at Sacramento (20-35), 10:00 p.m. EDT

Winless since the All-Star break, the San Antonio Spurs can't hide their frustration.

Looking to avoid their first five-game skid in almost four years, the Spurs' road stretch continues Friday night against a Sacramento Kings team that's shown some fight under new coach George Karl.

San Antonio (34-23) won two of three prior to the break to begin a run of nine straight road contests, but has dropped all four since.

The Spurs, 14-16 away from home, last lost five straight road games while dropping the final seven in 2012-13. They haven't lost five in a row overall since a six-game slide March 23-April 1, 2011.

"We're not used to losing like this - games that we could've and should've probably won," Tim Duncan said after scoring 20 in Wednesday's 111-95 loss at Portland. "So that in itself is bothersome, but nothing we can do about it."

San Antonio has allowed an average of 107.5 points and 48.6 percent shooting since the break, and shot 42.1 percent in the last two.

"There's always things to be concerned about," coach Gregg Popovich said. "It's not about winning or losing, it's about getting better all the time."

Popovich should be concerned with Tony Parker, who since scoring 21 points on 8-of-17 shooting in last Thursday's 119-115 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, has totaled nine while going 3 of 21 in three games.

"I can't even worry just about me," said Parker, who continues to deal with a hamstring injury. "I have to worry about the team, too. ... I just have to find a solution, even if I'm not feeling great."

Parker scored 27 and shot 10 of 17 in a 112-104 home win over a Sacramento team that played without DeMarcus Cousins on Nov. 28, and Cousins is doubtful for this meeting because of a sprained left ankle and bruised left hip.

That victory came 13 days after Cousins had 21 of his 25 points in the second half of a 94-91 home victory that ended San Antonio's nine-game winning streak in the series. Sacramento didn't make a 3-pointer in that game, one of only three instances in that NBA this season where a team failed to connect from beyond the arc.

The Kings have fired two coaches since they last saw the Spurs. Sacramento (20-35) has looked good in its two home games since Karl took over, winning both while averaging 105.5 points.

"It's just coming together, enjoy the game," Karl said. "The feeling of winning helps that."

With three days off after a 126-99 road loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, the Kings showed some tenacity Wednesday when Karl was whistled for a technical and Cousins got into a shoving match with Memphis' Zach Randolph in a 102-90 victory.

Cousins played just 25 minutes due to foul trouble but Rudy Gay had 28 points for the Kings, who held the Grizzlies to 40.5 percent shooting overall and 13 points in the fourth.

Karl, though, understands that building on that victory likely won't be easy.

"It's got to give you confidence but we've got to play a tough San Antonio team that's on a losing streak," he said. "I don't think Pop is going to rest any of his guys. He'll have a full crew out there."

That includes Kawhi Leonard, whose struggles are perhaps the biggest reason behind the Spurs' rodeo road trip to forget. After averaging 17.4 points and 7.9 rebounds in his first 10 games back from a right hand injury, Leonard is averaging 9.6 points and shooting 32.1 percent on this trip.
