Kings 119 - Rockets 118: Nemanja of the Year

What a DANDY! On the second night of a back-to-back, and the third game in four nights, down two of their most important players, the Sacramento Kings walked into Houston and snatched an important win from the Rockets off of a Nemanja Bjelica buzzer beating three-pointer with no time remaining. Buddy Hield led the Kings with 26 points, while Russell Westbrook and James Harden combined for 61, but it was Sacramento’s balanced attack and disciplined defensive game plan that led to a victory.

While the play of the game undoubtedly belongs to Nemanja Bjelica, the Kings would have never been in that position to win the game without the stellar defense of Cory Joseph.
