Devin Carter set a new career high in scoring on Wednesday, helping lead the short-handed Sacramento Kings to a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers at the Golden 1 Center.
Carter produced 16 points, five rebounds, three assists and three steals in the 123-119 victory as the Kings won their second straight game. He went 6-of-11 from the field, including 2-of-6 from 3-point range, in a season-high 30 minutes off the bench.
The 13th pick scored 14 points alone in the second half. He helped spark the Kings to a 76-63 advantage over the last two quarters, led by his energy and infectious defense.
