Kings Game Recap
OCT 29, 2026 / Pelicans Seize the Middle Quarters and Leave Kings With Too Much to Recover / L 120-132 / --- Past Game Archives ---
New Orleans, LA - New Orleans turned a six-point first-quarter deficit into a 132-120 victory over Sacramento, using two 39-point quarters and relentless defensive pressure to overwhelm the Kings. Sacramento led 30-24 after the opening period behind an aggressive start from Darius Acuff Jr., but the Pelicans answered with a 12-0 run early in the second and carried a 63-61 advantage into halftime despite a buzzer-beating three by De’Andre Hunter. The contest shifted decisively in the third, when New Orleans used a 21-4 surge to stretch a 67-65 lead to 88-69. Jeremiah Fears orchestrated the attack, Zion Williamson forced turnovers and finished near the basket, and Trey Murphy III added steady perimeter scoring. The Pelicans led 102-88 entering the fourth, although Sacramento briefly narrowed the gap to eight points behind Acuff, Precious Achiuwa and Alex Karaban. New Orleans responded with another run, and Sacramento's late rally fell short. Fears recorded 22 points and 13 assists, Williamson scored 22, and Murphy contributed 19. Acuff led the Kings with 34 points and 14 assists, while Hunter and Achiuwa added 24 apiece. Domantas Sabonis collected 15 rebounds but committed seven turnovers, reflecting Sacramento's costly difficulties protecting the ball. The Pelicans capitalized on loose passes, turnovers and fast-break chances throughout the game. The Kings won the opening and closing quarters, but could not recover from the damage between them.
