Coming off two consecutive losses, the Sacramento Kings went into Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets on a mission. The Kings stormed out to an 18-point lead at halftime, primarily led by star guard Zach LaVine, who has struggled to step up since getting traded to Sacramento a few weeks ago.
LaVine has been underwhelming since joining the Kings via trade a few weeks ago. The 29-year-old guard is averaging 20.3 points and 4.7 assists through seven games with the Kings, shooting just 43% from the field and 26.4% from beyond the arc.
