Kings Fall to 1-10, Acuff's Frustration & Another Tough Loss to Orlando

Deuce & Mo — Wed, 11 Nov 2026 08:20:43 GMT

Deuce and Mo break down Sacramento's 107-100 loss to a shorthanded Orlando Magic team, the 21 turnovers that led to 33 points and what they're seeing from a Kings team that continues to struggle.

Darius Acuff Jr. summed up the frustration after the game: "1-10 just don't sound right." Deuce and Mo react to his comments, discuss which lineups the Kings should lean into, when Sacramento might finally get another win and the challenge of navigating another tough season while trying to find reasons for optimism.

They also dive into what Dwyane Wade had to say about Acuff's upside, why the rookie leading the NBA in minutes is concerning and why the Kings need to bring his workload down.

Plus, Nique Clifford makes his OKC debut against Portland, and Paul George gets his ultimate revenge game against the Sixers.

Nique Clifford Trade and Recap/Preview

Kings Weekly — Tue, 10 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Nick and Ray open the episode with their thoughts on the Nique Clifford trade. They discuss the return of two second round picks (from Utah in 2028 and Minnesota in 2030) before covering the team's curious decision to move on from Clifford for that degree of return this early in the season. Then, they recap the last six games for the Kings, including their win over the Dallas Mavericks, Darius Acuff Jr.'s vastly improved balance between playmaking and scoring, Leaky Black establishing himself in the rotation, and the odd question of Domantas Sabonis's decrease in shot attempts. Finally, they wrap up with a preview of the team's games in the week ahead, including the upcoming game against the Orlando Magic and Nique Clifford's potential revenge game in Sacramento when the Thunder come to town.

Nique Clifford Traded as the Kings Keep Losing Games | The Kings Herald Show with Jerry Reynolds

The Kings Herald — Tue, 10 Nov 2026 02:46:45 GMT

The Kings Herald Show returns with Jerry Reynolds, Will Griffith, and Tony Xypteras to break down an out-of-nowhere Nique Clifford trade, and talk about the last two weeks of (poor) Kings Basketball.

Acuff GOES OFF for 32 & 10... But Kings Lose AGAIN to Giannis & Heat! | Kings-Heat REVIEW!

Deuce & Mo — Mon, 09 Nov 2026 06:58:26 GMT

The Kings are 1-9, STILL looking for their first home win... but how good is Acuff?!

Acuff dropped 32 points and 10 assists against Giannis and the Miami Heat, and he's now tied with LeBron James for the most 30-point, 10-assist games by a teenager in NBA history. Oh, and he did it without Domantas Sabonis against a tough Miami defense.

The Kings trailed by 10 entering the fourth quarter, but the bench helped bring them all the way back to tie it before Miami pulled away for a 114-108 win.

Deuce and Mo break down another frustrating Kings loss, why Acuff looks like a potentially incredible talent, what stood out from the comeback and the return of Keegan Murray.

PLUS, the Kings traded Nique Clifford to OKC. We react to the move and look ahead to Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic.

Finally, they wrap up by getting into some matchup questions for the upcoming game, including how Dylan Cardwell's return might impact Wembanyama's game and how Leaky Black's entrance into the rotation for the Kings could impact the defensive lineups for Sacramento.
