Sabonis frustrated by worst game of Kings’ career in loss originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea
Domantas Sabonis had the worst game of his brief tenure with the Kings on Monday as they fell to the Brooklyn Nets 109-85 at Barclays Center.
His underwhelming nine points, nine rebounds and two assists marked the first time he didn’t record a double-double since touching down in Sacramento last week.
And he’s not happy about it.
“I’m just trying to figure out the balance right now,” Sabonis told reporters after the loss. “The guys on the bench are like ‘C’mon, be aggressive, shoot it’ and I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes. I’m trying to look to pass more than to score and be aggressive. Today I could have been way more aggressive. I could’ve played my normal game. But I’m still trying to figure out how. So the more games the better.”
And it wasn’t just Sabonis who needed to be more aggressive. The whole team played slow and lacked grit.
