Alperen Sengun suffered a serious injury during the game between the Sacramento Kings and the Houston Rockets (104:112).
The Sacramento Kings were better during the first half, and everything indicated that they could achieve win. Domantas Sabonis was outstanding until the third period when the Houston Rockets won the quarter with 32:14, thus establishing their momentum in the game. The visitors maintained their lead in the fourth period and secured the triumph. Unfortunately, all of this was overshadowed when Alperen Sengun landed awkwardly and suffered a serious injury.
Alperen Sengun finished the game with 14 points, spending 29 minutes on the court. However, as things stand, there are realistic chances that we may not see him in any official game until the end of the season. According to the latest information, Sengun will undergo an MRI today, after which it will be known how long his recovery will take.
Domantas Sabonis was the most efficient player in the game with 25 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists. Fred VanVleet stood out for the Houston Rockets with 22 points scored.
The Kings remained seventh in the West with a record of 36-27, while the Rockets face a tough battle for the play-in (29-35).
