Kings' Nemanja Bjelica flirts with 20-point triple-double
Sacramento Kings power forward Nemanja Bjelica scored 20 points (7-of-10 field goals, 2-of-2 free throws) with 9 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks, 4 3-pointers, and 2 turnovers in 41.3 minutes of a 133-129 overtime win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday.
Bjelica set a new personal-best in assists while turning in his best all-around effort of the season. He's scored 20-plus twice in the past four games and should continue to see increased usage while Marvin Bagley (foot) is out. The Kings will host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
Bjelica scored 55.8 FanDuel points on Monday. numberFire's models project him for 15.5 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.6 blocks per game over the rest of the season.
