Doncic, who had set a franchise record with 73 points the previous night, managed 28 points in this contest.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Kings held a substantial 23-point lead, it dwindled to 114-108 with two minutes remaining. Fox responded with a crucial layup and a pair of free throws. Dallas&#8217;s Maxi Kleber&#8217;s follow-up with seven seconds left narrowed the gap to three, but Barnes sealed the win with two successful free throws with 4.4 seconds on the clock.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Fox and Barnes, Kevin Huerter contributed 18 points, and Domantas Sabonis secured his 27th consecutive double-double with 17 points and a game-high 11 rebounds. The Kings secured their third consecutive win, bouncing back from a season-low four-game losing streak and claiming victories in the first two games of a season-long seven-game road trip.<\/p>\n<p>The Mavericks, coming off a back-to-back after defeating Atlanta 148-143, saw Doncic achieve his ninth triple-double of the season with 28 points, 17 assists, and 10 rebounds. However, the Kings&#8217; season-high 10 blocks, including nine in the first half, played a significant role in the victory.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas was without <a href=\"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/nba\/player\/kyrie-irving\/\">Kyrie Irving<\/a> for the third straight game due to a right thumb sprain suffered on Monday. The Mavericks have played 24 out of 46 games this season without one or both of their star players.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fSvuXSRbwLc?si=4W5kcf_0OGZWOkxS\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>De\u2019Aaron Fox notched 34 points, and Harrison Barnes contributed 20 as the Sacramento Kings secured a 120-115 victory over Dallas on Saturday night, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":137,"featured_media":477032,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"tags":[16748,17788,16941],"news_category":[16706,14084],"gn_keywords":[17975,18882,17839],"acf":{"announce":"Luka Doncic scored 28 points just 24 hours after netting franchise record 73 against Hawks","video":["video"]},"rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_title":"","rank_math_robots":"","rank_math_canonical_url":"","rank_math_facebook_title":"","rank_math_facebook_description":"","rank_math_facebook_image":"","rank_math_twitter_title":"","rank_math_twitter_description":"","rank_math_twitter_image":"","rank_math_snippet_shortcode":"","rank_math_primary_category":"","rankmath_seo":{"focus_keyword":"","description":"","title":"","canonical_url":"","robots":"","facebook":{"title":"","description":"","image":""},"twitter":{"title":"","description":"","image":""}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/477029"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/137"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=477029"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/477029\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":477036,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/477029\/revisions\/477036"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/477032"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=477029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=477029"},{"taxonomy":"news_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_category?post=477029"},{"taxonomy":"gn_keywords","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gn_keywords?post=477029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
