In addition to the wide disparity in 3-point shooting, the Kings compounded their issues Friday with turnovers and poor transition defense. The Suns scored 38 points off Sacramento’s 19 turnovers. Many of which were unforced. Conversely, the Kings didn’t make the Suns pay for theirs. Sacramento scored just 16 points off Phoenix’s 14 giveaways.

The Phoenix Suns enter Friday’s matchup with the Sacramento Kings desperately needing to pick up a victory to stay in the hunt for the final Play-In spot in the Western Conference. Phoenix has dropped their last two games and have won only three of their last 10 contests.
