The Sacramento Kings and the Golden State Warriors capped off an historic, record-breaking flamethrower duel on Saturday night with a similar script to their first two contests; the Kings earned themselves plenty of changes, and matched the Warriors firepower shot for shot, but couldn’t hang in the closing moments. The Champions (26-14) pulled off the victory 127 to 123, and remain unbeaten by the Kings (19-20) this year.
The two teams combined for 41 threes on the night, the most in a game in NBA history. Buddy Hield went full nova, scoring 32 points on 8 of 14 from deep, and Justin Jackson added a huge 28 points with 5 threes (and tough defense) of his own as the Kings shot 20 of 36 from three as a team.
