The Sacramento Kings made some additions that made their team better at the deadline, and those moves give them a much-needed shot in the arm. The Washington Wizards are without a lot of their better players, either due to injuries or trades, and we could easily see them go in a whole these next couple of months. The Kings are a team that should be pushing for a playoff spot, and these are games they need to take advantage of. I’ll lay the bucket.
