Curry Has Big Night In Kings Victory Over Suns

PHOENIX (AP) — Seth Curry had 20 points and tripled his previous career best with 15 assists and the depleted Sacramento Kings beat the Phoenix Suns 105-101 on Monday night.

Curry, Stephen's brother, played 39 minutes — the most of his NBA career — while the Kings left three of their top players home for "rest" — DeMarcus Cousins, Darren Collison and Rajon Rondo. Curry topped his previous career best of five assists.

Kosta Koufos added 19 points for Sacramento. Mirza Teletovic led Phoenix with 26 points. Devin Booker added 22, 18 in the second half when the Suns sliced Sacramento's 17-point lead to two.

The loss left Phoenix (22-59) a game behind better than Brooklyn (21-60) in the competition for the fourth- and third-worst record in the league.
