The Sacramento Kings are hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento on Sunday, May 9, 2021, at 10:00 ET in a clash between two squads sitting outside the top-10 of the West. The Kings are 4-1 in their previous five matches but are 12th in the conference, 3 ½ games behind the tenth place that leads into the play-in tournament.

Kings have the third-worse defense in the NBA with 118 ppg, while scoring 113.8 ppg. They have a 48.2% field goal percentage and a 36.3% 3-point percentage. Under is 7-1 in their previous eight matches.
