The Phoenix Suns defeated the Sacramento Kings 112–100 on November 26 at Golden 1 Center, with Mikal Williams and Chris Gillespie each scoring 21 points to lead the visitors past a Sacramento squad anchored by Keegan Murray and Russell Westbrook's 19 points apiece. Phoenix's defense proved decisive, posting a 99.6 defensive rating while holding the Kings to 46.5 percent shooting and just 20 assists on 100 points. The Suns' aggressive perimeter game—14 three-pointers made compared to Sacramento's 12—and 14 steals created separation, though both teams shot nearly identically from the field at 46.2 percent. The game finished well below the Vegas total of 233.5, with Sacramento's offensive rating of 99.6 reflecting a sluggish offensive night punctuated by 19 turnovers. Phoenix's dominant first quarter (41 points) established early momentum the Kings never fully recovered from, despite a balanced fourth-quarter effort. The Suns' turnover discipline (14 to Sacramento's 19) and superior rebounding margin (47–41) underscored their control throughout. Phoenix's defensive intensity positions them favorably in Western Conference standings, while Sacramento must address its late-game execution.
