The Sacramento Kings defeated the New York Knicks 112–101 on January 14 at Golden 1 Center, with DeRozan and LaVine combining for 52 points to lead the home team. Sacramento shot 47.3 percent from the field and made 10 three-pointers while holding New York to just 39 percent shooting and 8 made threes, controlling the game through a dominant third quarter where they outscored the Knicks 40–34. The Kings' offensive rating of 115.8 paired with their defensive rating of 97.9 reflected their balanced execution, though 15 turnovers proved costly at times. New York's Mikal Bridges led the visitors with 19 points and generated 11 steals, but the Knicks' 45 rebounds and 23 assists couldn't overcome their inefficient shooting and a 14-point deficit in the final frame. The game fell well short of the Vegas total of 229.5, suggesting a defensive-minded affair that favored Sacramento's half-court control. The Kings' third-quarter surge proved decisive in extending their winning form.
