The Sacramento Kings will meet the Cleveland Cavaliers in an NBA basketball game Live Streaming Online Free from Quicken Loans Arena at 7:00 PM ET.
Cleveland (18-33) seemed to draw at least a temporary spark from last week's firing of general manager Chris Grant. After a season worst-tying six-game skid, the Cavaliers have won back-to-back games since his dismissal, knocking off Washington and Memphis.
"I think it woke up a lot of people," said Dion Waiters, who combined for 42 points in the last two games after totaling six points in his previous two contests. "Me, I felt half of that was my fault, how we played. We just didn't come out right as a unit. I think it cost the man his job. If we had been playing the way we have the last two games he'd probably still be here."
Kyrie Irving scored 28 -- including the final four in regulation -- in Sunday's 91-83 overtime victory over the Grizzlies. He was 4 of 4 from 3-point range after going 8 of 35 in his previous seven games.
"Everybody was putting too much pressure on themselves," said Irving, who is shooting 34.7 percent in four career games versus Sacramento. "We needed to go out there and play basketball. Going out there the last two games, whether the game gets tight or gets away from you, it should be fun"
Four games out of eighth place, the Cavaliers close out their pre-break schedule Wednesday at Detroit, one of the teams they're chasing in the East.
First, they'll look to stop a three-game slide against the Kings. Cleveland suffered a 124-80 loss at Sacramento on Jan. 12, the sixth-worst loss in franchise history. Irving was 3 of 14 with seven points.
The Kings (17-34) have lost nine of 11 overall and six straight on the road following a rough offensive performance in Sunday's 93-84 loss to Washington.
"That was not an offensive performance we were hoping for," Sacramento coach Michael Malone said. "Very hard to win on the road when you turn the ball over that many times. We talked about it going in that this is a team that does a great job turning their opponents over and scoring."
The game will be broadcast live on NBATV and live streamed on nbaliveonline.tv/streaming/
