The Sacramento Kings recently traveled east to take on the New Orleans Pelicans in a road contest that ended up being quite an ugly 111-109 victory. The Pelicans nearly mounted a comeback over Sacramento, but the Kings held on and got a much-needed victory to give them a .500 record.

DeMar DeRozan scored 32 points for Sacramento. De’Aaron Fox had 18 points, seven rebounds and eight assists. Keegan Murray added 18 points and nine rebounds while Malik Monk was held to five points on 2-of-11 shooting.

The frustration mounts for the New Orleans Pelicans as they drop their third straight game and fall to 5-21 on the season. It has been an up-and-down adventure
