CHICAGO — Domantas Sabonis had a triple-double and De'Aaron Fox scored 41 points, helping the Sacramento Kings hold off the Chicago Bulls 123-115 Saturday night.
Malik Monk added 22 points as Sacramento improved to 5-1 on a seven-game trip. It has won six of seven overall, including a 133-122 victory against Indiana Friday night.
Sabonis had 13 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists in his 14th triple-double of the season and No. 46 for his career. It also was his 31st consecutive game with at least a double-double, matching Oscar Robertson for the franchise record.
Coby White scored 26 points for depleted Chicago, and DeMar DeRozan had 24 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Nikola Vucevic finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds.
The Bulls played without Zach LaVine, Patrick Williams and Dalen Terry because of injuries, but Torrey Craig returned after missing six weeks with a right foot injury. The team announced that LaVine is going to have season-ending surgery on his right foot next week.
Chicago trailed by as many as 30 in the third quarter, but DeRozan's turnaround jumper trimmed Sacramento's lead to 118-115 with 59 seconds left. But Fox responded with two clutch foul shots for the Kings.
DeRozan then missed a contested layup on the other end, and Monk went 1 for 2 at the line. Harrison Barnes also made two foul shots in the final seconds to help the Kings close it out.
Trey Lyles made five 3-pointers and scored 16 points for Sacramento. Barnes finished with 11 points.
Fox made a 3 in the final seconds of the first half, lifting Sacramento to a 71-52 lead. He had 22 points at the break on 8-for-13 shooting.
The Kings then picked up right where they left off. Kevin Huerter, Fox and Barnes each made a 3 early in the third quarter, and Fox scored again to make it 82-52 with 9:46 left.
