Willie Earns Fitting New Nickname

Kings forward-center Willie Cauley-Stein has been a player who prides himself on doing the little things that help team's win games.

Finishing with 12 points, nine rebounds, three assists and a steal in a one-point win over Memphis on Monday night, No. 00 was credited by Kings Sideline Reporter Kayte Christensen for his willingness to get on the floor at any moment to secure possession.

One particular standout moment was a steal that caused Trill to slide across floor, ultimately making an incredible play to flip the loose ball to Darren Collison, who found Buddy Hield for an alley-oop dunk.
