Another week on the rollercoaster ride that is the Sacramento Kings season. Seemingly the return of healthy players to the fold and bringing Buddy Heild off the bench is the key that unlocked the Kings.

Marvin Bagley‘s continuing health issues may raise some red flags if he can’t find a way to stay on the floor. On the opposite side of the equation, it’s been wonderful to witness Harry Giles healthy after so many early injuries derailed the start of his career.

The biggest win comes against the Heat although they aren’t road warriors followed by a much needed win against the Spurs.

Although it looks like they are too far behind the chase pack to catch the eighth seed the win over the Spurs could be one we point back to at season end.
