The Kings gave away an absolute gift in Minnesota. They couldn’t create any meaningful separation from the Wolves throughout the first three quarters, opening the door for D’Angelo Russell to take over late with 13 points in the final frame, leading to a 116-106 win for the home team.
This is the fourth straight loss in the row for Sacramento, but an absolute killer considering who it came against, and with San Antonio also losing Monday. The performance the Kings put up today was not befitting a playoff team.
The first quarter played out as you would expect from two teams with bad defenses.
