Thomas put up 21 points to go along with five rebounds, five assists and three steals.  Thornton came off the bench and scored 19 points in just under 30 minutes of play.  Although Gay finished with 11 points, he really struggled on the night, shooting just 2-for-12 from the field and committing six turnovers.

As for Jimmer, he played fantastic in his 12:45 of action.  Playing all of his minutes in the second and fourth quarters, Fredette shot 4-for-6 from the field and 1-for-2 from three-point range To finish The game with nine points.  Jimmer also grabbed two rebounds, handed out two assists and registered one steal.

Even though he had just two assists, Fredette created plenty of scoring chances for the Kings which ended with made free throws.

He played with as much confidence as I have seen from him in a long time even though the Kings got beat.

The Kings have three days off before they are back on the floor on Friday night when they take on the Heat.
