Boozer, Stewart Lead Memphis to a 136-105 Victory over Kings as Grizzlies Remain Unbeaten
- On Saturday, the Memphis Grizzlies remained the league's only unbeaten team with a 136-105 victory over the Sacramento Kings. Rookie Cameron Boozer scored 27 points and Isaiah Stewart added 24 points to maintain Memphis's perfect 6-0 start.
- The Grizzlies' 6-0 record matches the best start in franchise history, while the winless Kings dropped to 0-6 on the season. Sacramento remains heavily dependent on rookie Darius Acuff Jr. to carry the offense.
- Sacramento rookie Darius Acuff Jr. finished with a career-high 38 points, tying the NBA rookie record by making nine three-pointers. At 19 years and 349 days old, he became the youngest player in franchise history to record back-to-back 30-point games.
- Memphis dominated the third quarter, outscoring Sacramento 42-25 to pull away decisively. The Grizzlies shot 55.3% from the field and 50% from three, with GG Jackson connecting on all five of his three-point attempts.
- With the Kings' bench scoring only 20 combined points, Sacramento faces an uncertain path forward. De'Andre Hunter added 19 points, but outside consistent contributions behind Acuff's scoring, the team's defensive struggles left them unable to secure stops.
