What to expect: The Kings will look to build on a breakthrough campaign last season that ended a 16-year playoff drought that was the longest in NBA history. The Kings were the top offensive team in the league last season thanks to the combo of De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis but need to get better on defense.
CLEVELAND (AP) â Domantas Sabonis had 21 points, 20 rebounds and nine assists as the Indiana Pacers strengthened their hold on a play-in tournament spot with a 111-102 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night.
Kelan Martin scored a career-high 25 points and Caris LeVert had 20 points and 10 assists for the Pacers, who moved one-half game ahead of Washington into ninth place in the Eastern Conference. The Wizards were beaten 125-124 in Atlanta.
âEvery game matters and we just saw that the Wizards lost, but it all depends on us,â Sabonis said. âWe want to get as high as we can in the play-in round. The most important thing is continuing to distribute the ball because it makes everybody happy.â
