Sacramento Kings thrilled to be in NBA In-Season Tournament quarterfinals

The Sacramento Kings have been finding success more than they had since being headed by Chris Webber and Mike Bibby. They intend to reward their loyal fans by giving their best with a prime chance to light the beam at the end of the game.

After making his first NBA All-Star selection, Domantas Sabonis is on a roll again this season, providing the Kings 18.6 pints, 11.8 rebounds an 6.9 assists a night. He's already looking forward to releasing some competitive juices against the Pelicans.

"Very excited," Kings big man Domantas Sabonis said. "It's going to be a fun one. It's a knockout game. These games are about bringing out your competitive fire."

In the team's most recent game against defending champions Denver Nuggets, they won, thanks to De'Aaron Fox who led the way with 26 points and 16 assists.

"Fantastic, fantastic night from our best player when we needed it the most," Brown said about Fox. "He has to step up in games like this for us to win."

It has been a fabulous season for Fox, who's averaging 30.3 points, 6.6 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game. Both he and Sabonis will play a huge role in the Sacramento Kings' upcoming game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
