Strong Start Lifts Kings to Victory

An all-around performance by the Kings led the team back into the win column on Tuesday in Sacramento. The team’s entire starting lineup scored in double-digits and overall, the squad shot nearly 56 percent while holding the Jazz to just 41 percent from the field.

An early 2-0 deficit was the only time the purple and black trailed in the game, going on a 12-0 run in the ensuing three minutes.

While Utah pulled to within one possession early in the final frame, the Kings showed resiliency -- pulling away with a 7-0 run led by Marco Belinelli, DeMarcus Cousins and Kosta Koufos.
