After two memorable nights at Golden 1 Center, the Sacramento Kings will take a 2-0 series lead on the road as they look toward Game 3 of the NBA Playoffs.
Before the Kings travel to San Francisco for another matchup with the Golden State Warriors, guards Malik Monk and Kevin Huerter spoke to the media following Monday’s 114-106 win.
Sacramento struggled to convert from beyond the three-point arc (24%), but timely shot-making and consistent stops down the stretch gave the Kings its first 2-0 series lead since 2004. Meanwhile, the Warriors are trailing 0-2 in the postseason for the first time since 2007.
As the series shifts to the Bay, Monk and Huerter talked about the Game 2 win and much more.
