OCT. 11 WARRIORS LOOK TO SHUT OUT KINGS IN PRESEASON SERIES The Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings had an entertaining exhibition match last Wednesday.  The Kings held a 68-66 edge over the Warriors at halftime. However, the Warriors' 3-point shooting blistered the Kings, as they ended the third quarter with 100 points.

Buddy Hield led the game with 22 points on an astonishing 6-7 3-point shooting mark. Moreover, Golden State set a franchise record for converted 3s in a game with 28. Can the Warriors continue their success on the Kings and get the edge on their rival before the 2024-25 season commences?
