The Kings appeared to be headed for a blowout loss on their home court in a game that was nationally televised by ESPN, but that’s when DeRozan went to work. He scored 17 points in the third quarter, bringing his team back from a big deficit while bringing the arena to life.

De'Aaron Fox saved eight of his 14 points for a game-ending flurry, DeMar DeRozan had 32 points and the Sacramento Kings overcame an 18-point deficit to beat the visiting Golden State Warriors 123-117 on Wednesday night.

In the early stages of a “make-or-break” stretch of games before the Feb. 6 trade deadline, what looked like a promising night for Golden State (21-22) ended with “Light The Beam” chants and a 123-117 loss. The Warriors committed 19 turnovers, negating a hot shooting night.
