Date: January 2, 2020
There was a minor upset in Sacramento where their close opponent Grizzlies (13-22) were defeated by fourth ranked Kings (13-22) 128-123 on Thursday. Kings made 26-of-31 free shots (83.9 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Kings made 8 blocks. Grizzlies were plagued by 25 personal fouls down the stretch. The best player for the winners was guard DeAaron Fox (192-97, college: Kentucky) who scored 27 points, 9 assists and 5 steals (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line). Bahamas guard Buddy Hield (193-93, college: Oklahoma) chipped in 26 points and 7 rebounds. Lithuanian center Jonas Valanciunas (213-92) produced a double-double by scoring 18 points and 12 rebounds and guard Ja Morant (190-99, college: Murray St.) added 23 points and 7 assists respectively for the guests. Both teams had five players each who scored in double figures. Grizzlies' coach tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Kings moved-up to third place, which they share with Chicago B. and Memphis G.
