It was a rough first quarter for the Suns on Tuesday night, but De’Anthony Melton entered the game in the second quarter and provided a bright spot against the Kings.
Melton has spent much of this season with the Northern Arizona Suns, but made the most of this opportunity as he already had a career-high eight points by halftime.
“Obviously, we started the game kind of slow, so I really wanted to go out there, give my energy and whatever happens, happens,” Melton said. “Never played for stats, I just play to win the game, so whatever happens, it was good for me.
