Well, the Sacramento Kings lost yet another game on Saturday, but at least this one felt a lot better.
Sacramento was competitive throughout the game, leading comfortably for a large portion, but ultimately MVP candidate Joel Embiid was too much for the Kings to handle. Embiid finished with 36 points on 18 shots and was able to pretty much score at will against any big man the Kings put on him.
Harrison Barnes had a chance to win the game at the buzzer, but couldn’t connect on a three, securing the Kings their season-high sixth loss in a row.
