| Acuff GOES OFF for 32 & 10... But Kings Lose AGAIN to Giannis & Heat! | Kings-Heat REVIEW! | 09 nov. 2026 | 01:01:11 | |
The Kings are 1-9, STILL looking for their first home win... but how good is Acuff?! Acuff dropped 32 points and 10 assists against Giannis and the Miami Heat, and he's now tied with LeBron James for the most 30-point, 10-assist games by a teenager in NBA history. Oh, and he did it without Domantas Sabonis against a tough Miami defense. The Kings trailed by 10 entering the fourth quarter, but the bench helped bring them all the way back to tie it before Miami pulled away for a 114-108 win. Deuce and Mo break down another frustrating Kings loss, why Acuff looks like a potentially incredible talent, what stood out from the comeback and the return of Keegan Murray.
