KINGS (27-53) VS. LAKERS (21-58)
THE PARTICULARS
Where: Sleep Train Arena
Time: 7 p.m.
TV/radio: CSNCA, 1140
THREE KEYS
1. Rookie defense: Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson was the Western Conference Rookie of the Month for March. He was averaging 15.3 points in 36 starts entering Sunday, so the Kings must look to keep him in check.
2. Bench support: The Kings’ second unit is thin because of injuries, so coach George Karl will rely on Andre Miller to spark the reserves.
3. Home energy: Perhaps the crowd can provide a psychological boost in the Kings’ home finale of a trying season.
