A packed Golden 1 Center crowd filled with purple jerseys mixed with holiday sweaters (Shoutout Boss10 representing front row with his Nikola Pekovi\u0107 jersey) made it feel like it could be a long night again. especially considering NBA MVP candidate, Karl-Anthony Towns, sat out due to knee soreness. In their previous matchup, Sacramento went bonkers from perimeter, draining eight of 14 shots in just the first quarter alone.
