The Phoenix Suns look to sweep their regular season series against the Sacramento Kings as they face them for the final time in the regular season March 3 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento.

The Suns opened the 2025-26 regular season Oct. 22 with a 120-116 comeback win over the Kings at home. Phoenix trailed by as many as 20 points before rallying to victory.

The Suns won the second matchup, 112-100, Nov. 26 in Sacramento. Mark Williams and Collin Gillespie each scored 21 points as Phoenix led by as many as 25 points and never trailed in the game.


The Suns took the third meeting, 129-102, Jan. 2 after a four-game road trip. Devin Booker scored 33 points. Phoenix scored 23 points off 21 Sacramento turnovers.

The Suns will follow their final game against the Kings with a three-game homestand starting March 5 against the Chicago Bulls. This will be the first Suns-Bulls matchup of the season. They face each other again April 5 in Chicago.

Phoenix then takes on New Orleans on March 6 in the second of a back-to-back. The Suns are 3-0 against the Pelicans, winning the first matchup, 121-98, on Nov. 10.
