KM hits a three, crowd goes nuts chanting his name.
Kings up 7 late 2nd qtr.
Steal and assist for Keegan.
Mike is a good teacher of the game. Keegan will benefit from the "Tough Love" he's getting.The Kings are up 20 with 7 plus minutes to go in the game and Mike Brown calls a time out to coach up Keegan. @Hawksfor3 , we have seen this many times before.
Mike Brown likely is the run away NBA coach of the year.
That's a sweet play that we have not only seen from Keegan, but others as well. A testament to Mike's coaching effort this season. Keegan is learning from possibly the COY. Good stuff. Good for the fans too.The Kings (38-26) beat New Orleans (31-34) 123-108.
Domantas Sabonis had 6 of the 10 Kings turnovers. Yikes.

Here's one of his buckets with 5 minutes to go in the game:
Lakers beat Grizzlies tonight. Kings are now tied with Memphis for 2nd place in the Western Conference! @Franisdaman.
They may not finish the regular season in 2nd, but this is an important milestone for the organization this late in the season.
Sac @ Suns @ 8 pm. Sac has lost first two to Suns. Paul, Booker, Ayton. Going to be tough.
As much that I'd love for the Kings to win tonight, I just don't see it. Might be a great opportunity for Mike to play several players tonight and get some action. Booker is the deluxe Kings killer. Hope Keegan locks down defensively.
