The Sacramento Kings dropped their 40th game of the season on Saturday, falling 115-110 to the Denver Nuggets. Sacramento was competitive throughout, and can’t feel too bad about their performance, despite dropping their fourth consecutive game.
With 29.4 seconds left, and the game tied at 110, Monte Morris hit a clutch three to give Denver the lead and ultimately put the game away. Morris was impressive all game Saturday, scoring 21 points on eight of 13 shooting and hitting that aforementioned dagger.
For the Kings, De’Aaron Fox bounced back from an uneven performance on Thursday with a better performance on Saturday, finishing with 26 points and continuously beating his man off the dribble at ease.
