The Sacramento Kings were able to score a road victory Sunday over the Toronto Raptors, knocking off the defending Eastern Conference runner - ups 96 - 91 at the Air Canada Centre. Recent results would indicate an easy Raptors win, but that simply was n't the case. This game was tight throughout, as no team led by more than 11 points. Toronto actually led for a 30 - minute stretch in this game, but the Kings hung around and pulled out the upset win. The key for Sacramento was their defense, as they held Toronto to 36 percent shooting from the field and 23 percent shooting from three - point range. The Kings also dominated down low, limiting the Raptors to 30 paint points, while scoring 52 on their end. The Kings (3 - 5) have been struggling recently, so a road win like this may change their fortunes going forward. Rudy Gay was n't expected to suit up for this game with a rib injury, but ended up suiting up while scoring a team - high 23 points against his former squad. DeMarcus Cousins was second on the team in scoring, tallying 22 points to go with 15 rebounds, four assists and three blocks in the win. Ty Lawson scored just five points on 0 - of - 6 shooting, but handed out 11 dimes in the victory. Kosta Koufos and Arron Afflalo both scored in double figures for the first time this year as well. Sacramento will return to action on Tuesday, when they host the winless New Orleans Pelicans. Toronto (5 - 2) looked as dominant as anyone coming into this game, but left Sunday looking very beatable. DeMar DeRozan failed to reach 30 points for the first time all season, as he dropped 23 on 7 - of - 20 shooting in the loss. Kyle Lowry was the only other player with more than 10 points, finishing the contest with 15 points, 10 assists and four rebounds. Patrick Patterson was a nice spark off the bench, as he amassed six points, nine rebounds and two blocks. On deck for the Raptors is a road matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
