See how to watch the Kings vs Thunder tonight as OKC look to win against Sacramento for the fifth consecutive meeting.

OKC has absolutely owned this matchup lately, winning their last four games against Sacramento. Their last visit to Golden 1 Center in February was particularly brutal – they crushed the Kings by 34 points.
The oddsmakers don’t see things getting much better for Sacramento tonight. The Thunder are 10-point favorites on the road according to BetOnline.
It’s easy to see why. Oklahoma City sits comfortably atop the Western Conference with an incredible 13-game lead over their closest competition. At 56 wins already, they could potentially hit the 70-win mark if they run the table for the rest of the season.
That’s rarified air in NBA history.
Meanwhile, the Kings are fighting for their playoff lives. They’re coming off a tough 18-point loss to the Celtics last night, despite a solid effort for much of the game.
The good news? Domantas Sabonis returned from his ankle sprain and looked pretty good, putting up 16 points and grabbing 17 rebounds.
The bad news? Sacramento needs wins fast, with both Phoenix and Dallas threatening to knock them out of playoff position as the regular season winds down.
## Injury Concerns
Both teams are dealing with some health issues heading into tonight’s matchup.
For Sacramento, Malik Monk and Devin Carter are both questionable with illness, while Doug McDermott is out with an elbow injury.
The Thunder have their own concerns. Rising star Jalen Williams is questionable with a hip issue, and Chet Holmgren might also miss the game with the same problem. They’re already without Ousmane Dieng (calf), Alex Ducas (quadricep), Ajay Mitchell (toe), and Nikola Topic, who’s done for the season with a knee injury.
Even with those potential absences, OKC’s depth and momentum make them heavy favorites to extend their winning streak against the Kings to five straight games.
Can Sacramento find a way to defend home court and grab a desperately needed win? Or will the Thunder continue their march toward a historic season?
