The Sacramento Kings are proving that they might not be as far away from playoff contention as you think.
Harrison Barnes had 28 points, while super rookie Tyrese Haliburton had 24, including 13 in the fourth quarter, helping the Kings defeat the Denver Nuggets 119-114.
Sacramento has been on a roll lately, winning six of its last seven to get back to .500 at 11-11. Barnes has been a big reason why the team has turned things around.
The veteran is averaging 24 points per game in the Kings’ last six wins.
