Command Analysis
LA Clippers
USAClippers performed well in the first preseason match, beating Denver (103:102) at home. Clippers played the match without their leaders, but their reserve players looked great. Terrence Mann stood out the most. In 29 minutes he managed to tally 14 points, eight rebounds and five assists. As a result, Mann became an MVP of the match.
Tyronn Lue's men will play again without Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Serge Ibaka and Jason Preston also won't play.
Sacramento Kings
USASacramento chose not to rest their key players at the start of preseason. Kings fielded their starters for the match against Phoenix. Eventually, Californian team recorded a 117:106 victory.
Harrison Barnes, Marvin Bagley and Buddy Hield had a great game. They scored 50 points and collected 13 rebounds combined. Lokks like they will be the key players in new Luke Walton's team. Maybe this time Kings will finally advance into the playoffs. They just need to be a little more consistent to achieve that.

Sacramento will have their best players on the court, so there is a possibility of a high-scoring game. In the previous match Kings scored 117 points. We are expecting another offensive performance from them.
