The Utah Jazz head to the Golden 1 Center on Sunday night to face the Sacramento Kings in a matchup featuring the two teams at the bottom of the Western Conference standings. While neither team is currently in the playoff hunt, the game is crucial for the 2026 NBA Draft lottery positioning.
Sacramento enters the contest with a 17–51 record but has shown signs of life recently, winning three of its last four games. The Kings are coming off an impressive 118–109 upset victory over the Clippers on Saturday night, led by a balanced attack from DeMar DeRozan, Precious Achiuwa, and Maxime Raynaud. Despite being on the second night of a back-to-back, Sacramento aims to maintain their momentum and secure their 18th win of the season.
The Jazz arrive in California with a 20–47 record, having dropped 10 of their last 12 outings. Utah’s season has shifted entirely toward the future. They have chosen to rest healthy veterans and key rotation players. The Jazz are looking to snap a two-game skid and exploit a potentially fatigued Kings roster.

Jazz vs. Kings Head to Head
The Sacramento Kings currently lead the 2025–26 season series 1–0 after a narrow 105–104 home victory back in October. Historically, the Kings have held the upper hand in recent years, winning eight of the last 10 meetings between the two franchises. The Jazz lead the all-time series 120-115.
Prediction for Jazz vs. Kings
Despite being on a back-to-back, the Kings have the superior veteran presence in DeMar DeRozan and Dennis Schröder to close out a tight game. Utah’s decision to rest Kyle Filipowski leaves them incredibly thin at the center position, which should allow Precious Achiuwa and Maxime Raynaud to dominate the glass.
Score Prediction: Kings 116 – Jazz 112
