Sabonis records 50th straight double-double, Monk leads the way in OT as Kings beat Grizzlies

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Malik Monk scored 12 of his 28 points in overtime, Domantas Sabonis had his 50th straight double-double and the Sacramento Kings beat the Memphis Grizzlies 121-111 on Monday night.

''Having a guy like Malik close the way he did was a lot of fun to watch,'' Sacramento coach Mike Brown said. ''We just put the ball in his hands and put them in pick-and-roll, and he was able to create a little bit of separation and get to his medium game, and he was really on point with it tonight.''

Monk added six rebounds and six assists as the Kings improved to 5-1 in overtime.
