|
| | | SACRAMENTO: GUARDS: GREIVIS VASQUEZ seems to have the edge in the point guard battle. He's a pass-first floor general who fits better in a lineup full of chuckers . . . ISAIAH THOMAS will have a major role whether he starts or not. He can score, and while his lack of size is a defensive liability, he makes up for it with harassing on-ball pressure . . . MARCUS THORNTON will eventually be relegated to a smaller role, but the gunning combo guard will get his minutes until Ben McLemore is ready . . . BEN MCLEMORE takes a lot of heat for his lack of assertiveness, but he can knock down corner threes and is an outstanding athlete, which is enough to make him a fine role player . . . JIMMER FREDETTE is kicking around as trade bait . . . Second-rounder RAY MCCALLUM should earn a bench role.FORWARDS: With his potential to be a solid defender, JASON THOMPSON is likely to retain his starting job. He's an afterthought on offense, though . . . LUC RICHARD MBAH A MOUTE seems like a natural to slide into the starting lineup. He can defend multiple spots and doesn't need touches on a team of players who do . . . CARL LANDRY could unseat Thompson. We see him in the same kind of bench role he had in Golden State. He's very good offensively and a relentless rebounder, but will struggle defensively against top-line forwards . . . JOHN SALMONS avoided the amnesty axe, though his role will likely be reduced again . . . Stretch four PATRICK PATTERSON is on the fringe of this rotation . . . Streaky shooting should have TRAVIS OUTLAW in and out of the rotation. CENTERS: The new regime of head coach Michael Malone will try again with DEMARCUS COUSINS, who continues to show flashes of dominance but too often plays and acts like a head case. He's playing for a contract, which would presumably have him on his best behavior . . . CHUCK HAYES will continue to be a second-unit glue guy at the four and five. | | ATLANTA: GUARDS: It was a rocky offseason for JEFF TEAGUE, who looked like a goner at one point. Instead, he'll be the focal point of Atlanta's offense . . . Coming off a torn ACL, resident gunner LOUIS WILLIAMS is a question mark entering the season, especially as a guy who relied so much on quickness and explosiveness. He may not be right again until 2014-15 . . . JOHN JENKINS was rock solid as a rookie and should see a bump in playing time with DeShawn Stevenson gone. Jenkins is a legit shooter who can hold his own defensively . . . Rookie DENNIS SCHRODER is a year or two away from consistent minutes, but the penniless man's Rajon Rondo comparisons aren't off . . . JARED CUNNINGHAM is a middling talent destined for a minor role. FORWARDS: PAUL MILLSAP was lost in the shuffle in Utah last year, but he'll be a significant part of this offense in Atlanta. He's a well-rounded power forward and may prove to be a better fit than Josh Smith was for the Hawks . . . KYLE KORVER is coming off a huge year and will play major minutes at both wing spots again . . . A shadow of his former self, ELTON BRAND will rotate in at power forward and center . . . This generation's junkyard dog, DEMARRE CARROLL gives Atlanta some defensive options on the wing and energy off the bench. Outside of some transition baskets, he's a non-factor on offense . . . Euro veteran PERO ANTIC is a finesse stretch four who provides frontcourt depth. CENTERS: After playing a lot of power forward alongside Zaza Pachulia last year, AL HORFORD will spend most of this season at center. With Josh Smith gone, he's poised to have his biggest offensive numbers ever . . . GUSTAVO AYON has proven capable of eating up some space on the second unit. He'll be the second big off the bench after Elton Brand. |

*Kings-Hawks Preview* =====================
By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer
Sacramento (7-15) at Atlanta (13-12), 7:30 p.m. EDT
The Atlanta Hawks could use some consistency.
Kyle Korver is certainly doing his part, and their upcoming schedule should also help.
Korver looks to continue his record-setting streak from 3-point range as the Hawks try to beat the Sacramento Kings for a 12th straight time Wednesday night.
Atlanta (13-12) has won four of six after dropping five of six. Despite continuing to hover around .500, the Hawks are getting consistent production from Korver, who is averaging 12.3 points and is among the league's top 3-point shooters at 48.7 percent.
Korver's knack for connecting from long range has reached historic levels, as he's hit at least one 3 in an NBA-record 94 straight games since going 0 for 2 at home against Houston in his first game with Atlanta on Nov. 2, 2012.
Korver kept his string going Monday, hitting three 3s to spur a dominant third quarter as Atlanta went on to defeat the Los Angeles Lakers 114-100 in the opener of a three-game homestand. He scored all 11 of his points in the period, when the Hawks outscored the Lakers 35-19.
"Great intensity. Great aggressiveness and I think we played off of our defense," first-year coach Mike Budenholzer said. "We moved the ball well. We found the open guy. That's how we want to play."
That hasn't been a problem against the last-place Kings (7-16).
The Hawks are averaging 111.0 points during their win streak in the series while making 50.7 percent of their shots, including 39.8 from beyond the arc.
After facing Sacramento, Atlanta hosts Utah (6-21) on Friday.
Korver has put together his own streak against the Kings, making at least one 3 in six straight meetings while going 18 for 26 from long range and averaging 13.8 points.
Al Horford had 27 points and 10 rebounds and Paul Millsap added 25 and 11 in a 105-100 win at Sacramento on Nov. 5. Horford is averaging 23.5 points and 9.3 boards over his past four meetings with Sacramento.
The Kings have dropped three of four and are coming off one of their worst performances of the season. They shot 37.5 percent from the floor - 4 of 15 from 3-point range - while falling 95-87 at Charlotte on Tuesday.
DeMarcus Cousins scored 30 points and pulled down 17 rebounds with six assists and three steals. The center is averaging 24.5 points and 13.3 boards over the past six games. However, he was limited to 11 points with six rebounds against the Hawks last month.
Rudy Gay is looking for a bounce-back performance after scoring a season-low four points while missing 5 of 6 shots against the Bobcats. He totaled 50 points in his first two games with the Kings after being acquired in a seven-player trade with Toronto on Dec. 9.
Gay may have to contend with the Hawks' DeMarre Carroll, who was a big reason Kobe Bryant was limited to eight points on 4 for 14 from the floor Monday.
"I love it," Carroll said. "That's what they brought me here to do, play defense. Each year I'm trying to make the defensive team because I think I can be one of the lock-down defenders."
