For the first time since the 2005-06 season, the Sacramento Kings have won a playoff game.
On Saturday night, the Kings were led by De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk, who combined for 70 points in their team’s 126-123 win in Game 1 against the defending champion Golden State Warriors. Despite their heroics, Steph Curry had a chance to tie the game during the final possession but missed a three, giving the Kings the victory. Despite being the No. 3 seed, the Game 1 win feels like an upset. That said, this team is converting folks into believers, and with all the support they are getting from their rabid fan base, we shouldn’t be surprised if the Kings make it out of Round 1. Game 2 tips off Monday at 10 p.m. ET on TNT.
Which brings us to today’s quiz of the day. In honor of the Kings’ long-awaited return to postseason glory, we want to see how many of the leading scorers from the 2005-06 NBA playoffs you can name in five minutes.
Good luck!
