Kings fall to Celtics for second loss in a row

Sacramento shot just 41.4 percent and was outclassed by a Celtics team that has the best record in the NBA. Watching Friday’s game, it was clear that despite their recent strong play, Sacramento has a long way to go to be on the level of the NBA’s elite teams.
The Kings actually held an 84-78 lead with 4:17 left in the third quarter and looked like they could steal a victory on the road. But from then on, Boston immediately flipped the script, going on a 19-0 run and never looking back.
