In a significant matchup, the Sacramento Kings overwhelmed the San Antonio Spurs 127-109, showcasing a stellar performance from their starting lineup. Zach LaVine led the charge with a remarkable 36 points, followed by DeMar DeRozan contributing 22. The Kings' bench struggled to make an impact, with no bench player scoring more than 10 points, yet it was more than enough against a Spurs team missing Victor Wembanyama.

This defeat marked the Spurs' sixth loss in eight games, now placing them half a game behind the No. 12 seed in the Western Conference. They must regroup quickly as they next face Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves, a critical contest for their playoff aspirations.
