The Sacramento Kings nabbed their second consecutive win on Wednesday night, beating the Dallas Mavericks 95-94 in thrilling fashion. It was a battle until the very last possession, sealed by a game-winning 3-pointer from none other than Chimezie Metu.
“Fox made the pass, and I was ready to shoot it.” Metu said postgame.
The first frame was unkind to Sacramento - getting into foul trouble that sent Dallas to the bonus just five minutes into the contest. It was a tough ask for the Kings to defend without fouling as the charity stripe was full all quarter long to the dismay of Kings fans leading to a double-digit deficit after twelve minutes of play.
