SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Tyrese Haliburton had 14 points and 10 assists in his second straight start in place of leading scorer De’Aaron Fox, and the Sacramento Kings beat the Dallas Mavericks 113-106. Richaun Holmes added 24 points and six rebounds for Sacramento in his second game back after sitting out five with a strained hamstring. Harrison Barnes had 19 points, and Buddy Hield scored 16 including a clutch 3-pointer late in the fourth quarter. Fox, the Kings point guard, is in the NBA’s health and safety protocols and could miss up to two weeks.
