Golden State finished the regular season with a 44-38 record to narrowly avoid the play-in tournament and earn the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference. 1994 marked the last time the Warriors were eliminated in the first round, winning nine straight opening round series as a franchise since. The team posted a poor 11-30 road record this season and will have to overcome that without homecourt advantage in this round.
Sacramento finished the regular season with a 48-34 record to earn the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference. The Kings were the surprise team of the entire league this year and are making their first playoff appearance since 2006.
