Chriss made his debut for the Suns in their season opener on October 26, 2016, against the team that originally drafted him, the Sacramento Kings. In 22 minutes off the bench, he recorded seven points, four rebounds, two assists, and one block in a 113–94 loss. With Chriss playing alongside Devin Booker and fellow rookie Dragan Bender, the Suns became the first NBA team to have three teenagers on the floor in the same game. He made his first start for the Suns on November 8 against the Portland Trail Blazers, recording seven points, four rebounds, and one block in 20 minutes of play during the 124–121 loss. On December 13, he recorded his first career double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds in a 113–111 overtime win over the New York Knicks.
Five days later, Chriss had his first 20-point game in a 115–96 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. On February 2, he was named Western Conference Rookie of the Month for games played in January, after averaging 8.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.4 steals for the month. Two days later, he scored a career-high 27 points in a 137–112 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. On March 5, he had a career-best five blocked shots in a 109–106 win over the Boston Celtics.
His five blocks were the most by a Suns rookie since Amar'e Stoudemire had six in November 2002. On March 15, he tied his career high of five blocks in a 107–101 loss to the Sacramento Kings. On April 1, he recorded 19 points and a career-high 13 rebounds in a 130–117 loss to Portland. As a rookie, Chriss played in all 82 games—the only Suns player to do so in 2016–17. At the season's end, he was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team, becoming the 14th player in franchise history to be named All-Rookie. In July 2017, Chriss re-joined the Suns for the 2017 NBA Summer League.
In five games, Chriss averaged 14.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks per game. On December 26, 2017, Chriss tied a career high with 13 rebounds in a 99–97 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. On January 12, 2018, Chriss missed the Suns' game against the Houston Rockets due to a hip injury, ending a streak of 124 consecutive games to begin his career. It was the longest streak by a Sun since Kyle Macy played in the first 329 games of his pro career from 1980 to 1984.
He returned to action on January 26 after missing six games, and was 1-for-12 from the field for three points in a 107–85 loss to the New York Knicks. On January 31, in a 102–88 win over the Dallas Mavericks, Chriss reached 100 career steals, three-pointers and blocks at 20 years, 213 days old. He became the third youngest player ever to reach 100 of each with only LeBron James and Kevin Durant doing so younger. On April 1, Chriss scored a season-high 22 points against the Golden State Warriors. He topped that mark on April 6 with 23 points against the New Orleans Pelicans. Chriss had a phenomenal start at Washington, recording a double-double with a season-high 29 points and 10 rebounds in the second game of the season against Mount St. Mary's.
In the following weeks, however, his production dipped because he developed a habit of collecting unnecessary fouls. He fouled out of three straight non-conference games during the Battle 4 Atlantis in November 2015. His mother stepped in once again with a decision that likely saved his season in terms of productivity. She suggested Chriss consult a sports psychologist, and the Huskies accommodated her request. He went on to have one of the top freshman campaigns in their program's history, finishing with the fourth-most points by a freshman , fifth-most rebounds , and the most blocks .
He started all 34 games in 2015–16 and averaged 13.7 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game. He subsequently earned honorable mention Pac-12 All-Freshmen selection. Shockingly, tonight's game already marked the final contest of the year between the Lakers and Kings. Finished 2-2 against Sacramento, who fired former Lakers head coach Luke Walton midseason and is well on its way to another finish outside the playoffs. Once they're officially eliminated, the Kings will have the longest postseason drought in NBA history, having missed out every year since 2005. So the Lakers finishing at .500 in their season series against one of the worst teams in the NBA — and allowing 125 points or more in each of their two losses — is humiliating to say the least.
Looking fresh after erupting for a career-high 62 points Sunday, Curry scored 11 points in his first 12 minutes as the Warriors went up after the first quarter. He finished with 30 points on 9-for-18 shooting overall (5-for-12 from 3-point range), nine rebounds and eight assists and earned the rest of the night off after 31 minutes. Throughout the draft process, Chriss went from being a considerable late-lottery or mid-first round talent to rising up in the draft as a potential top 3 draft candidate.
In the days leading up to the draft, Chriss agreed to terms on a multi-year footwear and apparel endorsement deal with Nike. He ended up being selected with the eighth overall pick in the draft by the Sacramento Kings. He became the first recruit outside of the top 50 rankings to be drafted in the top 10 as a one-and-done player since the rule was instituted in 2005.
On July 7, he signed his rookie scale contract with the Suns and joined the team for the 2016 NBA Summer League. Chriss played in three games for the Suns during the Summer League before developing an illness that ruled him out for the rest of the tournament. Gary Payton II scored 10 points or more for the 8th time in 30 NBA games this season. He recorded it on a December 04, 2021 game against Phoenix Suns ( win).
Otto Porter scored 10 points or more for the 10th time in 26 NBA games this season. He recorded it on a November 28, 2021 game against LA Clippers ( win). Damion Lee scored 10 points or more for the 11th time in 25 NBA games this season.
He recorded it on a October 27, 2021 game against Oklahoma City Thunder ( win). Here you have the complete list of game played between the Kings and the Warriors with their all-time performance against each other in the NBA Regular Season. It includes total games, wins and losses, scores, overtimes, dates and evolution of their head to head record. If it exists, data about the variants of the two franchises through the years is also shown. The first time these two teams played in October, the total points scored were 226. The Warriors will not have Wiggins and Poole, who are averaging 36.6 points per game.
Golden State is averaging 106.2 points per game in their last 10 games, while the Kings are scoring 113.4 points per game in their last 10. The total has gone over in five out of the Kings' last seven games. Antetokounmpo's 28th career triple-double came in under 30 minutes played, making him the first player in NBA history to achieve that feat multiple times. The astral of the Warriors team, Stephen Curry is in a great condition and has been shaking some records. Curry went on to record a 45 point game against the LA Cavaliers with 10 rebounds and 1 assist, and that was just the second match of the season for the Warriors. If he continues to showcase just extraordinary play then he may have his 3rd MVP soon.
The Golden State Warriors seem to be in a lot better place both with their roster and the season. The Golden State Warriors injury report features Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins as the latest additions. Klay Thompson and James Wiseman are the other two players sidelined. As it has been pretty much all season the Lakers' defense was absolutely abysmal, especially later in the game.
This was particularly true against the Kings' starting unit, as every Sacramento starter had scored in double figures by the early third quarter. De'Aaron Fox led the way with 29 points, sailing by defenders all night to have his way around the rim. On August 31, 2018, Chriss was traded, alongside Brandon Knight, to the Houston Rockets in exchange for Ryan Anderson and De'Anthony Melton.
The Rockets declined the $4 million option for the 2019–20 season on Chriss' rookie contract, which would make him a free agent at the conclusion of the season. As a youth growing up in Sacramento, California, Chriss played baseball and American football. Between fifth grade and eighth grade, he showed promise as a tight end, defensive end and safety.
However, during a game in his eighth-grade season, Chriss landed awkwardly on his shoulder while attempting to catch a long pass and broke his collarbone. His mother subsequently disallowed Chriss to play football from then on, and he was forced to choose basketball instead.

Any defeat usually mobilizes Golden State players, and the team wins the next 2-3 matches. The Warriors lost on December 19, so we expect a couple of victories from the team. In Sacramento, the situation is a little different - most likely the Kings will lose, but with at least 105 points. With three games in the books, Curry is averaging 31 points on 43.5% shooting from the field with nine rebounds, seven assists and 2.3 steals to open the season. The Sacramento Kings have six players in health and safety protocols.
They are De'Aaron Fox, Louis King, Alex Len, Davion Mitchell, Marvin Bagley and Terance Davis. Meanwhile, Richaun Holmes has been sidelined for six consecutive games because of an eye injury and is likely to be out again. Full list of regular season games played between the Kings and the Warriors, with results and the evolution of their head-to-head record. Trevor Ariza got his second start of the season in the frontcourt alongside James, but recorded two fouls in the game's first 90 seconds and was quickly benched for Stanley Johnson. Ariza reentered later in the first and showed that he's still getting up to speed.
He was waived by the Warriors on January 7, 2020, to make room for two-way contract player, Damion Lee, who was given a guaranteed contract for the remainder of the 2019–20 season. Chriss averaged 7.3 points and 5.4 rebounds per game, earning respect from teammates and coaches. The Warriors faced a hard cap that season that prevented them from keeping both Lee and Chriss.
On January 15, the Warriors re-signed Chriss to a two-way contract, which was later converted into a 2-year rest-of-season contract. On December 26, 2020, Chriss suffered a broken right leg and missed the rest of the season. After 30 games played, the Kings have 12 wins and 18 losses - with a win index of 0, 400, the team is currently ranked 11th in the Western Conference. Curry added 10 assists to notch his third consecutive game with a double-double.
The seven-time All-Star tacked on seven rebounds and three steals in 35 minutes against the Kings. Maurice Harkless and Damian Jones played the most minutes off the bench in the last game. They are likely to receive the most amount of playing time among the reserves again.
Haliburton continued his stellar play into the fourth quarter, logging his third straight contest with 20+ points and 10+ assists. Sacramento had no answers for the number one defense in the association, and fell flat for the rest of the game. It was once again up to the remaining pieces of the team's core offense, Haliburton, Hield and Barnes, to steer this Kings team across the timeline tonight.
No one could seem to get it going on offense from the jump, with the team scoring just one field goal in the first five minutes of action. Sacramento covered the spread five times in its past 10 matchups while putting up a 5-5 record straight-up in those games. He finished with 22 points on 8-of-16 shooting, three rebounds, three assists, three steals and one block. He also helped lead the second unit in the fourth quarter to survive the Curry-less minutes. There's been debate over whether or not Green should look to score. The simple fact is that the Warriors are just better when he does, but that doesn't mean he needs to chuck shots up.
It just means that if he's in position to score, he takes the shot. If Green can put up 10 to 15 points each game, the Warriors' deep scoring arsenal will be that much deeper. It will also force opponents to defend him, opening up other players to shoot. Steph Curry -- who became the first player in franchise history to dish out 5,000 career assists -- led the team through most of the night, finishing with 27 points, 10 assists and three steals. All of Hield's points came on 6-of-13 shooting from 3-point range. Despite losing for the fifth time in their past seven games, the Kings outshot the Warriors 40.6 percent to 40.5 percent from beyond the arc.
All five Sacramento starters scored in double figures, with Harrison Barnes going for 19, Hield 18, Chimezie Metu 16 and Tristan Thompson 10 to complement Haliburton's 24. Green put up 16 points, a game-high 11 rebounds and 10 assists in his first triple-double of the season and the second of his career against Sacramento. After the first couple of weeks of the season, it looked like the stated goal of being a top-10 defense was a pipe dream. But in their last two games the Warriors have a defensive rating of 106.0 — which would rank ninth in the league this season.
Warriors Vs Kings Box Score 2021 Chriss attended Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove, California. As a freshman at Pleasant Grove, Chriss was one of 25 students who showed up for tryouts. The school only had junior varsity and varsity teams, which meant that roster spots were limited, especially for a player like Chriss who previously had zero competitive experience in the sport. Chriss almost didn't make it, but his energy and effort stood out. He began the season as a reserve before eventually working his way into the starting lineup.
A year later, he started for the varsity team and led the school to a 28–6 record and a state championship. Colleges began offering Chriss scholarships that season, with the first coming from Northern Arizona University. During Sunday's tilt, Curry shook up the record books by becoming the first player in Golden State's franchise history to tally 5,000 career assists. Curry is the 69th player in NBA history to surpass the 5,000 assist mark.
Desmond Bane is the sixth player in NBA history to make 200+ 3P and shoot 40%+ from 3P range in his first 100 career games. The final score of the last 10 Golden State games has surpassed the set total three times. Golden State games have finished with a final combined score above the over/under nine times this season. Damion Lee chipped in with 18 points for the Warriors, who won for the 15th time in 17 home games. Payton and Otto Porter Jr. added 12 points off the bench, while a third reserve, Andre Iguodala, scored 10. Tyrese Haliburton had 24 points and 11 assists to lead Sacramento, which was down six players plus interim head coach Alvin Gentry.
But the Lakers rediscovered their early-season habit of sluggish play in the third quarter, as the Kings' young core out-hustled L.A. And took advantage of James going cold from the field, flipping the script to the tune of a 24-3 run to take a 13-point lead. Sacramento ended up scoring 40 points in the third compared to just 23 from the Lakers. His late layup with less than two minutes remaining brought the Lakers within four, but a Chimezie Metu three with less than a minute to go sealed it for the Kings. On the other end of the court, LeBron James simply could not keep up, finishing just from the field, 3-12 from three and 5-10 from the free-throw line.
