CLEVELAND, Ohio -- For the second time in less than two weeks, the Cleveland Cavaliers made a trade hours before tipoff, leaving them shorthanded.
By the time the final buzzer sounded, Cleveland's tank was empty.
Just like the earlier matchup against Oklahoma City on Nov. 27 -- the night Kyle Korver was traded to Utah -- the Cavaliers wore down as the game progressed, losing 129-110 to the Sacramento Kings.
It was Cleveland's sixth loss in the last seven games.
The Cavs played the Kings even for one half, using a late second-quarter push to tie the game at 66 thanks to a Jordan Clarkson buzzer-beating triple.
