The Sacramento Kings are struggling with turnovers and defensive issues, ranking 29th in turnovers and 26th in points allowed. They faced a heavy loss to the Warriors, which prompted a meeting led by coach Doug Christie. The team aims to overcome these challenges before the playoffs.

Domantas Sabonis continues to be a pivotal player for the Kings, but the team has moved away from effective plays that utilize his strengths.

Keegan Murray, as a starter, has faced challenges adapting to the Kings' system under Christie's coaching, contributing to the team's recent struggles.

Zach LaVine has struggled to find his rhythm alongside Monk in the Kings' offense, affecting their overall efficiency and chemistry.

DeMar DeRozan is part of the Kings' struggling starting five and has faced challenges with the team's defensive performance and offensive flow.
