The Sacramento Kings lost again 118-97 and dropped to 11-35 overall without DeMarcus Cousins tonight against the Phoenix Suns. That is not a good sign moving forward since the biggest improvement was supposedly the new depth on this roster.

That depth the last two games has been nonexistent. The Kings still look lost without Cousins, which is disappointing but they will have to put both loses behind them as they prepare for the Houston Rockets, Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs the next three games.

It will not be an easy task but if Cousins plays, then those games are winnable.

Kosta Koufos led the Kings with 16 points off the bench, while Mario Belinelli and James Anderson added 15 apiece.
