Kings top Bulls 129-102
(SACRAMENTO) – The Sacramento Kings are a long shot to end the NBA's longest active playoff drought, so Dave Joerger's team is taking solace in the little things. Getting their 34th win of the season, the most by the Kings in more than a decade, certainly stands out. Rookie Marvin Bagley III had 21 points and 9 rebounds and fellow rookie Harry Giles had 16 points as the Kings beat the Chicago Bulls 129-102 on Sunday. Bagley, the second overall pick in the draft, managed to upstage his teammate with yet another strong game. Bagley scored 14 points in the second half to help the Kings pull away, made a handful of big plays including a coast-to-coast layup after blocking a shot by Robin Lopez, and finished one rebound shy of his 14th double-double this season. Giles complemented Bagley on the interior, and took a pass from his rookie teammate and dunked to put Sacramento up 88-61 in the third quarter. Giles also tied his career high with three blocks. Buddy Hield added 16 points and inched closer to the Kings' single-season record for 3-pointers. Zach LaVine had 18 points for the struggling Bulls (19-52). Chicago has lost five straight. Lauri Markkanen had 11 points and has scored in double figures for the 29th consecutive game, the longest streak by a Chicago player in eight years.
