By Nieva Tan PhilBoxing.com Sun, 26 Oct 2014

LAS VEGAS -- The Sacramento Kings came from 13 points down late to beat the Los Angeles Lakers by a nose, 93-92, on Friday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena at the famous strip in Las Vegas.
After Jeremy Lin nailed a triple with 4:29 left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers appeared to be in complete control. But the Kings refused to give up and mounted a rally that led to Ray McCallum's tip-in with a scant 0.1 ticks remaining in the contest.
Sacramento closed the preseason with a 2-5 record. The Lakers wrapped up exhibition play at 3-5.
DeMarcus Cousins led the Kings with 21 points and 10 rebounds while Ramon Sessions had 13 and eight assists. Derrick Williams finished with 13 points while Reggie Evans pulled down 16 boards.
Jeremy Lin was the top man for the Lakers with 19 and seven assists. Ed Davis added 15 points and 13 rebounds and Julius Randle put up 12 and nine boards. Fil-Am rookie Jordan Clarkson contributed 11 for the Lakers, who made 37 of 80 shots, including seven of 15 from three-point land.
