The Sacramento Kings fell to the Atlanta Hawks on their second night of a back to back in heartbreaking fashion, 108-102. Trae Young did not play in tonight’s contest, leaving the Kings with an opportunity to — yet again — capitalize on the absence of a team missing its star.
This contest was a slugfest from midway through the first frame, after Atlanta came out of the gates on a hot scoring spree. Both teams traded clunkers, turnovers and poor defense in the first two halves, but no momentum was ever gathered by either ball club as things were tied up nearing the second quarter.
