“Sacramento over the last few weeks is the number one rated offense in the league. We had great concerns what [De’Aaron] Fox was doing, what Buddy [Hield] was doing from the perimeter and their other role players as well [Harrison] Barnes. Our guys just played with great tenacity, attention to detail and really just a had gem of a defensive performance tonight.”
