|
| | | SACRAMENTO: GUARDS: MARCUS THORNTON is the only one guaranteed a consistent role on the perimeter . . . ISAIAH THOMAS was the story of the second half for the Kings. He can fill up the box score, but at 5-foot-9 (at best) he's too much of a defensive liability and not a point guard . . . AARON BROOKS is the most talented guard on this team. He's had attitude problems in the past, but he could, and should, lead this team . . . Now that he remained in Sacto, TYREKE EVANS will be playing off the ball at the three against his wishes . . . The Kings will keep on trying to unload JOHN SALMONS, who's not a useful NBA player . . . JIMMER FREDETTE should have a role off the bench, but his ball-handling is not where it has to be for an NBA point guard . . . FRANCISCO GARCIA's chance seems to have passed him by. FORWARDS: THOMAS ROBINSON should emerge as a starter early in his rookie year. He has his flaws on both ends of the floor, but he brings energy and doesn't need a lot of touches to get his points . . . Even if Robinson knocks him to the bench, JASON THOMPSON should play the five at times and see close to starter's minutes . . . JAMES JOHNSON should also play big minutes soon considering his ability to make positive contributions without a lot of touches . . . CHUCK HAYES should continue to play second-unit minutes as a glue guy . . . TRAVIS OUTLAW has regressed to the point that he's lucky to have a roster spot . . . TYLER HONEYCUTT has an intriguing skill set as a defensive-minded point forward, but he's likely ticketed for the D-League again. CENTERS: DeMARCUS COUSINS came on strong late last season. There's no doubt he has All-Star potential, but between his awful shot selection and occasional attitude problems, he just hasn't lived up to his potential. After Team USA passed on him this summer because of reported maturity problems, he might still not get it. | | UTAH: GUARDS: MO WILLIAMS will get a crack at running the point in Utah. He's more of a combo guard, but he'll do fine in an offense that revolves around the bigs . . . RANDY FOYE is a gunning combo guard who will step in as Utah's sixth man . . . ALEC BURKS started to come on late last year, making Raja Bell expendable. He'll come off the bench, but if he can start knocking down perimeter shots, he's in for a much bigger role . . . Yeah, that's right, EARL WATSON and JAMAAL TINSLEY are both still around. And they're both riding pine in Salt Lake . . . KEVIN MURPHY is a cagey scorer from tiny Tennessee Tech (no word on his Golden Tee skills). FORWARDS: PAUL MILLSAP was Utah's best all-around player last season and will be playing for a new contract. He should be able to keep his minutes despite Utah's young bigs behind him . . . GORDON HAYWARD will probably slide to the two. He has a chance for a breakout year after a strong finish to 2011-12 . . . MARVIN WILLIAMS gets a fresh start in Utah after a disappointing run in Atlanta. He figures to have a similar complementary role with the Jazz . . . DERRICK FAVORS is a long-term solution in the frontcourt. His offensive game is coming on, and he's already a far better defender than Al Jefferson . . . Slam dunk champion JEREMY EVANS and DeMARRE CARROLL will both provide energy off the bench. CENTERS: Like Millsap, AL JEFFERSON will hit free agency after the season. He's an incredibly limited player, a great scorer in the low post, but incapable of any other contributions and a huge liability on defense . . . ENES KANTER is still a few years away from a starting job. He has some rough edges to his game, but really had no problem adjusting to the physicality of the NBA. |

*Kings-Jazz Preview* ====================
By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer
Sacramento (17-32) at Utah (26-22), 9:00 p.m. EDT
The Utah Jazz have appeared to recapture the defensive form that keyed their recent dominance in Salt Lake City.
That's not exactly a good sign for the Sacramento Kings, who have sputtered offensively on their current road trip.
Utah will try for its ninth home win in 10 games Monday night when it takes on a Sacramento team that has one of the worst road records in the NBA.
While the Jazz (26-22) have lost both road games during a current stretch with 10 of 12 in Salt Lake City, they've won six of those first seven in Utah.
Utah has been far better at home defensively, limiting Portland to 36.7 percent shooting in an 86-77 win on Friday before allowing the Trail Blazers to shoot 50.7 percent in a 105-99 road loss a day later.
Aside from a franchise-record 45-point loss to Houston on Jan. 28, the Jazz have allowed just 93.4 points on 43.2 percent shooting in their last eight home games.
Utah, however, has given up 99.8 points per game and 50.8 percent shooting in its last 11 on the road.
"We're getting better at being active and understanding some of our rotations on the weak side," coach Tyrone Corbin said.
The Jazz will try to continue their winning ways at home against the punchless Kings, who have averaged 80.7 points on 39.7 percent shooting while losing three straight on their current six-game swing.
Sacramento (17-32) is 5-20 on the road, but has given the Jazz a tough time lately. The Kings have taken four of the last seven meetings, winning 108-97 at home Nov. 24.
They also had a 13-point fourth-quarter lead at Utah a day earlier before Gordon Hayward hit a tiebreaking jumper with 4.5 seconds left to give the Jazz a 104-102 win.
Tyreke Evans has scored 23.7 per game while shooting 52.7 percent in his last three against the Jazz, including a 27-point effort in the last meeting.
Evans, however, looks to bounce back after finishing with seven points on 3-of-10 shooting in a 120-81 loss at New York on Saturday.
"I missed a lot of layups," Evans said. "One of those nights. I think it was the worst game I ever played in the NBA."
Leading scorer DeMarcus Cousins broke out of his recent slump with 25 points and nine rebounds against the Knicks. He had averaged 11.5 points over his previous six games.
Although they've struggled lately, the Kings has shot a combined 51.9 percent from the floor and 16 for 33 (48.5 percent) from 3-point range in the two meetings with the Jazz.
Utah, meanwhile, hopes forward Paul Millsap can continue to provide a spark after averaging 19.3 points in his last three games. Millsap, though, has scored 9.2 per game in his last six against the Kings.
Randy Foye has reached double figures in a season-high eight straight games, averaging 14.9 points while shooting 41.5 percent from 3-point range during that stretch.
That's helped Utah recover from the loss of Hayward (13.5 ppg), who is expected to miss a fifth straight game due to a shoulder injury.
After making 39.6 percent from the field in their last three games in the series, the Jazz look for better efficiency against a Sacramento team that has allowed 106.0 points per game and 50.2 percent shooting while dropping seven of its last eight overall.
