THREE KEYS
1. Rest up: New Orleans is short-handed because of injuries and playing the second game of a back-to-back. The Kings should be fresher, even coming off a five-game trip.
2. Small ball: The injuries will force the Pelicans to start a small lineup. Kings coach Dave Joerger might do likewise, replacing Kosta Koufos with Matt Barnes as he did last week against Miami.
3. One-man gang: New Orleans’ Anthony Davis has put up some big numbers. The Kings cannot allow Davis to carry the Pelicans to a victory.
