2024 Kings versus Timberwolves

Larkin and I went to the Sacramento Kings versus Minnesota Timberwolves NBA basketball game. We have been going to Kings games together for 40 years!

With Kings leading for most of the game, the Timberwolves made an 11 to 0 run to end the third quarter. The Wolves led 89 to 88 at the end of the third quarter. The Kings were competitive in the fourth quarter, but the Timberwolves held on to win by the score of 117 to 115.

Julius Randle was the high scorer for the Timberwolves. He had 33 points on 13 for 17 from the field, 5 for 6 from three and 2 for 3 from free throw line. Anthony Edwards added 32 points for the Wolves.

DeMar DeRozan was the high scorer for the Kings. He has 26 points on 7 for 18 from the field, 0 for 2 from three and 12 for 14 from the free throw line. The Kings got 24 points from Sabonis and 23 from Murray. Keegan was 5 for 10 from three.

In spite of the loss, the Kings were a fun team to watch. As I texted Jack, I think that it is going to take a couple of weeks to sort out the right rotations.

The Kings have 0 wins and 1 loss in games that I have seen in the 2024-2025 season.

Hunter has partial season tickets in a section to the right of Larkin's tickets. We connected with him, Danny and Robbie after the game. We joined them at Echo & Rig for a beer.
