It was yet another balanced performance by the Kings in what has been the hallmark of their season. They had seven players score in double digits and Harrison Barnes led the way with 19 points. De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk had 18 points each while Domantas Sabonis finished with 17 points to go with 8 rebounds.
Their offense continues to cause major problems for the opposition, with the Kings having scored at least 120 points in every game after the All-Star break. No one has really found a way to put the clamps on them and it will be interesting to see how this team performs in the postseason.
LeBron James Believes Mike Brown Should Win COTY
It isn’t just NBA fans who think that Brown should win COTY, as LeBron James stated that his former head coach is “hands down” the winner of the award. Brown deserves all the praise that has been coming his way, having successfully returned the franchise to relevance for the first time in nearly two decades.
Nick Young also believes that Brown should win the award if they finish as the second seed in the Western Conference. That just seems likelier with the passing day and this will go down as a very special season in Sacramento, no matter how it ends.
