The Sacramento Kings were at it again on Thursday night, beating the New York Knicks, 122-117.
It was another strong victory for the Kings and also another night for them to prove how strong their entire roster is.
Kevin Huerter, who has become one of the most beloved players on the team, was looking wonderful yet again.
During a pivotal moment in the fourth quarter, Huerter put up and sank a great three-pointer that put his team up by six points.

The crowd understandably went wild after Huerter’s hot shot.
He was uncharacteristically lukewarm from downtown on Thursday, sinking just two of his seven three-point attempts.
For the season, Huerter has been 40% from the three-point line, which is a career-high.
Additionally, his field goal percentage is also at a career-high too, at 48.9%.
Huerter was just one of the several great additions the team acquired in the most recent offseason.
Along with Malik Monk and Keegan Murray, Huerter has greatly enhanced the energy, speed, efficiency, and culture within the team.
One of the best things about this Sacramento team is that it’s very deep, the roster has multiple players who are always eager and ready to step up.
Huerter is just one of many.
More importantly, he also has some postseason experience which will come in handy for the second-place Kings.
He played for the Atlanta Hawks and was a part of their lineup during their playoff runs in 2020-21 and last season too.
During those games, he averaged 10.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 3 assists with a 33.3% three-point average.
What will he do this year?
