KEY GAME INFORMATION
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.
DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is turning into something of a one-man army as the roster around him crumbles. As good as he is as a quick playmaker who can knock down an open three, his supporting cast is lacking . . . EVAN FOURNIER is better than RANDY FOYE now, and he's certainly a bigger part of Denver's future. Fournier proved surprisingly ready for the NBA last season. While Foye brings more scoring power to a team that suddenly lacks offense, he's both inefficient and one-dimensional . . . NATE ROBINSON will provide instant offense and lead the second unit . . . ANDRE MILLER will lose a few minutes this year, but the 37-year-old still has good basketball left. FORWARDS: Coming off a late-season ACL tear, DANILO GALLINARI will be lucky to make it back by December . . . KENNETH FARIED will likely never develop into anything more than an energy guy and high-volume rebounder, but he's good at what he does . . . WILSON CHANDLER can shoot and defend multiple positions. With Gallinari a question mark, he could be in for a much bigger role this year . . . DARRELL ARTHUR is an interesting second-unit player. He's an athlete who was starting to show some skill in Memphis before getting hurt . . . Gunning wingman JORDAN HAMILTON may get a longer look in the second half of the season . . . QUINCY MILLER is likely ticketed for more D-League action . . . ANTHONY RANDOLPH is a lost cause. CENTERS: The time has arrived for JAVALE MCGEE. The front office wants him on the floor full-time. For all the knucklehead plays, he's still an incredible athlete in a massive 7-foot frame . . . Talk of J.J. HICKSON potentially starting is absurd. A brutal defender unable to play within the flow of an offense, he's a second-unit talent . . . TIMOFEY MOZGOV is Plan B behind McGee. The 7-footer can defend and set screens.

*Kings-Nuggets Preview* =======================

By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer

Sacramento (18-36) at Denver (25-29), 8:00 p.m. EDT

With lopsided losses piling up and no timetable for the return of their best player, the Denver Nuggets' streak of postseason appearances looks all but over.

At least facing the woeful Sacramento Kings might provide a brief break from their struggles.

Denver seeks its 11th win in 12 meetings on Sunday night when it hosts Sacramento.

The Nuggets (25-29) have reached the playoffs each of the last 10 seasons - the second-longest active streak behind San Antonio's 16 straight appearances - but are 7 1/2 games back of Dallas for the eighth seed in the Western Conference.

They've also lost six of seven and it's unclear when scoring leader Ty Lawson (18.0 ppg) will return after missing the last five games with a broken left rib. Denver is 1-4 during that stretch and averaging 94.0 points on 41.0 percent shooting. The Nuggets had been averaging 101.8 points while shooting 45.0 percent.

"I don't know if he's getting close or if he's not," coach Brian Shaw said. "He says he's feeling better."

Five of Denver's last six losses have come by 17-plus points after it had suffered only three such defeats in the previous 47 contests. The latest was a 117-89 setback at Chicago on Friday. Aaron Brooks provided a spark with 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting in first game since being acquired from Houston a day earlier, but the Nuggets fell into a 32-12 hole early.

Randy Foye scored 23 points, while Kenneth Faried tallied just eight in 27 minutes after totaling 47 points over his previous two contests.

"It felt like tonight we had some guys who just decided they weren't going to play, they weren't going to put forth any effort to get the job done," Shaw said. "It's unfortunate."

Denver split two games in Sacramento earlier this season, most recently taking a 125-117 victory Jan. 26.

The Kings (19-36) are still tied for the worst record in the Western Conference despite winning two of their last three following a 105-98 home victory over Boston on Saturday. Rudy Gay tallied eight of his 22 points in the final six minutes while Isaiah Thomas finished with 21 points and 12 rebounds.

DeMarcus Cousins added 13 points after missing Wednesday's loss to Golden State with a hip injury. Sacramento claimed a 40-26 advantage in points in the paint after being outscored 52-32 without Cousins against the Warriors.

"We'll take the win, but we have to get a lot better," coach Michael Malone said after his team won despite committing 18 turnovers. The Kings turned the ball over 21 times versus Golden State.

Cousins has 54 points and 29 rebounds over his last two matchups with Denver, though he sat out the last meeting with an ankle injury.

He said the hip continues to bother him.

"I had to do a couple of exercises on the sideline just to loosen it back up," he said. "It tightened up on me during the game a few times. It's bothering me a lot right now. Just running up the floor was tough."

The Kings announced Saturday that Jason Terry - acquired along with Reggie Evans from Brooklyn in exchange for Marcus Thornton on Thursday - would spend the remainder of the season rehabilitating his left knee. Terry has posted career lows in minutes (16.3) points (4.5) and field-goal percentage (36.2) for the Nets.

Darrell Arthur is listed as day-to-day for Denver with a strained hip suffered in the second quarter of Friday's loss.

The Nuggets have won eight in a row at home versus Sacramento.
