De’Aaron Fox was an unstoppable force – he scored 60 points Friday night, a personal and franchise high for the Sacramento Kings. He managed to do so, scoring 26 of those points in the final 17 minutes of the game.

All this was not enough.
It wasn’t a night that the Minnesota Timberwolves came through and got 36 from Anthony Edwards – including the overtime dagger.
Minnesota won 130-126 in overtime. After the match, there was nothing but praise for Fox.
“He’s an All-Star and the sky’s the limit for him,” Kings coach Mike B said. He knew we needed help and he put us on his back, and he almost carried us to the finish line, but he did everything in his power. and it was a spectacular performance from him.
It’s a tough loss for the Kings, who have played well early in the season and are now tied with the Timberwolves at 7-6.
