Forward Derrick Williams also topped the 30-point mark after struggling for production earlier this year with Minnesota. The Kings got 32 points and 19 rebounds from DeMarcus Cousins in a win over Dallas on Monday, the first game since the team’s trade. The Jazz know how dangerous Sacramento can be, even with a depleted lineup.
'Having a healthy Derrick Favors makes that challenge for us that much harder,' Malone said. After missing last week’s game, forwards Marvin Williams and Derrick Favors will start tonight for 4-19 Utah. Malone and the Kings might need some input on how to handle a full-strength Jazz team. 'Rudy, Quincy and Aaron will be on the bench supporting us,' Kings coach Mike Malone said, 'and if they have any helpful thoughts for me, I’ll take them.' The seven-player trade that shipped Rudy Gay from Toronto to Sacramento remains, for the time being, in limbo as former Kings Guard Greivis Vasquez was slow arriving in Canada and has yet to undergo a physical to finalize the deal.
