• ESPN simulations have Sacramento as XX% favorites to win the game.
• XX% of sports bets are currently on Atlanta to win as (TBD) underdogs.
• The line for this game is Hawks by 7 points.
• The Atlanta Hawks might be the most impressive team in the NBA through the first two games of the season, though they have yet to face a team that made the playoffs last season. The Hawks will get another team that spent last spring outside of NBA arenas when the Sacramento Kings visit on Monday.
• Sacramento coach Dave Joerger is trying to turn his team into a defensive power, and veteran Matt Barnes was credited with providing the energy at that end the team needed to escape with a 106-103 home win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday. Barnes collected 12 points, nine assists and five rebounds but Joerger thinks his biggest contributions are outside the boxscore.
• Atlanta is putting a lot of trust in point guard Dennis Schroder, who signed a four-year extension on the eve of the regular season after taking over the starting role when Jeff Teague was dealt to Indiana over the summer. The 23-year-old is earning that trust thus far and is 10-of-19 from the field while working to build a pick-and-roll relationship with Howard. Schroder had a nice relationship with most of his teammates on Saturday, when he handed out 11 assists in 28 minutes.
• Kings starting SG Arron Afflalo is averaging 6.7 points on 31.8 percent shooting.
• Atlanta F Mike Scott (knee) has yet to make his season debut and remains day-to-day.
• Sacramento snapped a 15-game losing streak in the series with a 91-88 home win in the last meeting on Jan. 21.
