Sacramento Kings two-way rookie Kyle Guy recorded 37 points Friday night in the G League with the Stockton Kings in a 147-117 loss to the Oklahoma City Blue.
The former Virginia guard drained seven 3-pointers in the loss and finished by shooting 15-of-29 from the field in 38 minutes of work. Guy also added two rebounds, two steals and one assist.
The performance by Guy came just one week after he made his official NBA debut with the Kings. Guy went scoreless in three minutes off of the bench as head coach Luke Walton emptied the bench in a loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.
