Clifford’s Game-Winning Shot | Sacramento Kings News

Nique Clifford dropped a game-winning three to seal a 79-76 Summer League victory over the Nets, crediting teammate Darius Acuff Jr. for trusting him with the shot — a play Acuff found him on the wing for instead of taking it himself. Acuff led all scorers with 25 points. Clifford, entering his second Summer League season, is emerging as a leader for the Kings, having grown significantly last year after being drafted 24th overall and playing 75 games. He’s focused on elevating the team for Sacramento’s passionate fans, proud to be part of a new wave of young talent bringing fresh success to the city. After the All-Star break, he seized more minutes due to injuries, showing explosive growth — especially on defense, where he recorded multiple steals in nine of his first 15 games back, including a standout six-steal game with 12 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists.
