After spending much of the season in the G League, Sacramento Kings two-way rookie Kyle Guy made his official NBA debut on Friday night during a 127-106 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.
The former Virginia guard logged just under three minutes in the contest as head coach Luke Walton emptied his bench with the Kings trailing by 16 points to the Bucks. Guy became the eighth Virginia player to appear in an NBA game this season.
Guy has emerged as one of the top scorers so far this season in the G League with the Stockton Kings. Guy is averaging 21.1 points per game on 35.9% shooting from 3-point range in 20 games played. His career-high of 42 points set on Nov. 30 still ranks as the third-highest individual performance this season.

Although Guy is still searching for his first official bucket, Friday night will still be a memorable night after seeing his first action in the NBA.
