Hawks, Kings to Square Off in Sacramento
The Atlanta Hawks will visit the Sacramento Kings at Golden 1 Center on Wednesday.

Wednesday will be the fourth game of a lengthy seven-game road trip for Atlanta (16-33). So far, the team has enjoyed a fair amount of success, picking up wins against Chicago and the Los Angeles Clippers. The 2-1 start to the trip puts Atlanta at 3-3 in its last six games, marking somewhat of a turnaround from the team's tough start to the season. Rookie points guard Trae Young has had a big part in the team's improved play. Young is averaging 18.3 points per game in the month of January. On Monday, he led the Hawks to a win over Los Angeles by scoring 26 points and dishing out eight assists to go with just one turnover.

Kent Bazemore (ankle) will be a game-time decision for the Hawks, while Miles Plumlee (knee) is out of the lineup.

Sacramento (25-25), on the other hand, has run into a rough patch recently. The Kings are 2-4 in their last six games, and all four losses have come by a margin of at least 14 points. Most recently, Sacramento took a 108-122 loss to the Clippers in Los Angeles. The Kings struggled to find reliable offense in the win, shooting just 39.8 percent from the field in the loss. After their recent rough patch, the Kings rank just 19th in the league in offensive rating and 21st defensively.

The Kings enter Wednesday's matchup with no injuries to report.
