Kayte Christensen on if fatigue factored into the Kings loss to Dallas

NBC Sports California analyst Kayte Christensen joined “The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross” on Wednesday morning to talk about the Sacramento Kings 132-96 loss to the Dallas Mavericks Tuesday night.

Tuesday’s matchup with the Mavericks was the Kings’ fifth game in seven days, across multiple timezones and even one in a different country. Was Tuesday’s loss the result of fatigue?

“If you don’t have multiple guys in the starting lineup scoring at a high level, that’s not a big night for De’Aaron [Fox], that’s not a big night for Domas [Sabonis], you’re putting yourself in a situation where it’s going to be hard to win games, especially against a team like Dallas,” Christensen said.

The Kings and Mavericks get two days off and meet again Friday night.

Additional topics discussed include:

• What is a spray three?
• Why it’s taxing to play five games in seven nights
• The Sacramento Kings have had the third-toughest schedule this season
• Luka Doncic doesn’t have explosive athleticism but tremendous fundamentals
• Should Caitlin Clark take the $5 million deal from Ice Cube to play in BIG3?
