2024 Kings versus Clippers

Friday night, Jack, Drew, Sharon and I went to the Sacramento Kings versus LA Clippers NBA basketball game. The four of us had dinner at Il Fornaio before the game.

The Kings fell behind in the first quarter and trailed for the rest of the game. The Kings cut a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit to four with under three minutes to play, but the Clippers hit consecutive 3-pointers to push the lead back to double digits. The LA Clippers won the game by the score of 107 to 98.

All you need to know about the game is the three point shooting for each team. The Kings were 3 for 26 from three (11.5%), while the Clippers were 14 for 30 (46.7%). The Kings made just one three in the second half. The Kings are in the bottom five in the NBA in 3-point shooting; they entered the game shooting at a 32.5% clip. Oy vey…

De'Aaron Fox was the high scorer for the Kings. He had 31 points on 12 for 20 from the field, 2 for 5 from three and 5 for 6 from the free throw line. Excluding Fox, the rest of the team went 1 for 21 from three point range. Murray was 0 for 6 from three.

Norman Powell was the high scorer for the Clippers. He had 31 points on 10 for 23 from the field, 5 for 9 from three and 6 for 7 from the free throw line.

At halftime, Sharon and I connected with Hunter, Danny and Lauren. I don't remember the last time that I saw Lauren, but I was surprised at how tall she is...

The Kings have 0 wins and 2 losses in games that I have seen in the 2024-2025 season.
