KEY GAME INFORMATION

SACRAMENTO: Rajon Rondo gets new life in Sacto. He was a disaster in Dallas, where his inability to make a jumpshot led to sagging defenses clogging the paint and stifling the Mavs. There's a real chance his skill set no longer fits in today's NBA . . . Ben McLemore's three-point shooting will be key for this team, as opponents will already have an extra defender in the paint because of Rondo. McLemore's shooting gives them a chance to open up room for DeMarcus Cousins to operate . . . The arrival of Rondo sends Darren Collison back to the bench. Though he'll likely play some 2 alongside Rondo as well . . . Marco Belinelli is a heady passer who brings more much-needed shooting to the lineup . . . After an unimpressive first stint in the NBA, James Anderson returns to the league after a one-year run in Lithuania. He has never quite become a complete player, but Rudy Gay should continue to thrive working off of DeMarcus Cousins. He'll have his share of wide-open threes and driving lanes. Gay will also see extended minutes as a stretch 4 . . . Omri Casspi had a solid bounbeback season in his return to Sacramento. He brings some defensive versatility off the bench, and shot the ball much better last season . . . Veteran wing Caron Butler is part of the Kings' attempt to surround Cousins with shooters. At this point in his career, he brings little more than the ability to spot up in the corner . . . Quincy Acy returns to Sacramento as an athletic big with little offensive upside. He's essentially a 12th man. DeMarcus Cousins lived up to his immense potential for most of last season, but he and Karl are a volatile mix . . . Uniquely athletic, Willie Cauley-Stein will take some of the defensive burden off Cousins as a possible starting 4. He's a non-factor offensively . . . Kosta Koufos is a nice addition as a quality second-unit center.

BOSTON: Marcus Smart will likely keep the starting job as a defense-first game manager, but he's a part-time player until he comes along offensively . . . Avery Bradley's tenacious D would make Kyle Gass proud. He's a Brad Stevens favorite, but will continue to be little more than a catch-and-shoot option on offense . . . Stevens has mentioned Isaiah Thomas could start, but it doesn't matter. Even coming off the bench, he's the alpha scorer on this team . . . Evan Turner had some moments last year, but he's going to be a guy whose playing time depends on matchups . . . Terry Rozier is undersized and can't run the point, but could be a Bradley-type defender . . . R.J. Hunter is a deep threat who will likely have to spend some time in the D-League. The Celtics spent on Amir Johnson to provide some needed rebounding and rim protection . . . Jae Crowder has emerged as a nice glue guy, though he's shaky offensively . . . Jared Sullinger will still have a significant role. He provides a scoring threat on a team that lacks offensive punch . . . Jonas Jerebko gives them a versatile piece off the bench . . . David Lee looks like he will be playing significant minutes for this team. He is an excellent playmaker and can score in bunches . . . James Young is a work in progress after a shaky rookie year . . . Jordan Mickey is the kind of athlete they've wanted up front. Don't be surprised if the second-rounder out-plays the two first-round rookies. By the end of last season, Stevens seemed to have settled on Tyler Zeller as his starting center. Zeller isn't a dynamic athlete, but he generally gets himself into the right spots defensively and can knock down mid-range shots . . . Kelly Olynyk looks very good at times, but still disappears too often. He has a unique skill set for a 7-footer, but needs to become more aggressive on both ends of the court.

PREVIEW

Kings-Celtics Preview
By KEVIN CHROUST STATS Writer

The last time Boston went on this type of run at home, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett were getting by with a third-year guard thrust into a more prominent role after Rajon Rondo went out with a torn ACL.

Jump forward three seasons and those big names are long gone, though Avery Bradley remains with the Celtics again streaking heading into Sunday's home game against Rondo and a struggling Sacramento Kings team that's reportedly considering a coaching change.

In Friday's 104-103 win in Cleveland, Bradley made a 3-pointer from the corner at the buzzer to give Boston (30-22) its eighth win in nine games, including three straight by no more than eight points. The guard finished with 14 points while hitting 4 of 8 from 3-point range and is averaging 16.3 points in his last 11 games.

"It's a great feeling," Bradley told the team's official website. "It's a blessing from God that I even had a chance to get open. I lost the ball for a second and I didn't even think I had enough time to get the shot off, but I did and it's just a great feeling."

The winner sparked a celebration by the young Celtics, who were swept by the Cavs in last year's playoffs. They've all of a sudden opened up a 7 1/2-game lead over New York for second in the Atlantic Division with Toronto five games ahead.

"In the big picture it does count as one (win), but it gives you a sense you're improving and getting better," said coach Brad Stevens, whose team has averaged 108.8 points over the last nine games. "For us it would have been disappointing to lose that lead and not come out with a win. They made huge plays late in the game, but our guys stayed poised. To score five points inside 8 seconds is a good deal."

The Celtics return to Boston having won six straight at home for the first time since an 11-game run from Jan. 27-March 16, 2013.

Boston opened the season series with a 114-97 win in Sacramento on Dec. 3, and it's also won the last seven meetings at home.

Sacramento (21-29) is playing its second of a four-game road trip, and how many more George Karl will be around for seems to be up in the air. After Friday's 128-19 loss in Brooklyn, Rondo placed blame on those on the court.

"It has nothing to do with the coaches, it's about us," said Rondo, who finished with 15 points and 15 assists and had 29 points in his only return to Boston with Dallas last season. "We don't sacrifice enough to do what it takes to win consecutive games."

The Kings have dropped six of seven while allowing 116.4 points per game with opponents shooting 44.9 percent from 3-point range. They've also lost four straight on the road for the third time this season, allowing an average of 121 points and 50 percent from long distance. The Nets went 18 of 28 from 3-point range.

"Shooters get going and in a lot of ways we never got a defensively mentality in the game," Karl said. "We tried to do a shootout mentality and just, we sit here very empty right now."

Whatever's boiling remains under the surface - for now. DeMarcus Cousins has had four straight double-doubles and is averaging 31 points and 12.6 rebounds in 17 games since the calendar flipped to 2016, but he wasn't willing to expand on the team's internal concerns.

"I'd rather keep it in house, but we definitely have a bigger issue than just energy and effort," Cousins said. ''That can't be the excuse every night."
