The Sacramento Kings defeated the Dallas Mavericks 110-106 Sunday evening, proving once and for all that the Kings need no European players other than Bogdan Bogdanovic and Nemanja Bjelica. I have spoken.
Bjelica had a huge game for the Kings, finishing with 30 points (three more points than any other European players in this game), 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. His 30 included the game-sealing bucket at the end of the game, as Dallas’ blown defense allowed him a wide open streak to the basket.
Buddy Hield also had a big game, finishing with 26 points, going 5-6 from beyond the arc.
