Sacramento Kings star De’Aaron Fox played with a ‘lot of heart’ in loss to Heat, coach says

Fox scored a season-high 41 points as the Kings dropped to 3-5 on the season

LAS VEGAS —After the Kings’ 110-107 loss to the Miami Heat in Las Vegas on Sunday, Fox spoke on the growth of guard Kevin Huerter as well as the adversity the Kings have faced to open the season.

Huerter finding his role with Kings

Huerter’s 17 points in Friday’s 112-99 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers were a team-high, and he followed that up with a 3-for-6 outing from three-point range against the Heat.

“Kevin is continuing to grow as a player,” Fox said. “Continuing to progress. He’s a big part of this team and I think he knows that. We all know that.”

Kings looking to bounce back from tough road trip

The Kings closed out their four-game road trip with a 1-3 record, and will return home to Golden 1 Center for their home opener against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday.

After the game, coach Mike Brown said he was proud of how his team competed on the road trip, and that the Kings would look to learn from the experience and get better as the season progresses.
