    Kings' Darius Acuff: Continues to fire away

    Acuff posted 19 points (8-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 loss to San Antonio.The rebuilding Sacramento Kings are wasting no time giving the rookie first-rounder the green light to fire away on offense in the early stages of the season.

    Kings' Darius Acuff: Goes for 22 points in loss

    Acuff tallied 22 points (9-23 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and a block across 36 minutes in Sunday's 123-112 loss to the Grizzlies.Acuff remained heavily involved offensively, attempting 23 shots while leading Sacramento with seven assists, but his efficiency was underwhelming. The volume is there, as Acuff has attempted at least 23 shots in every game so far this season, but he's making just 32.9 percent of his attempts overall and 14.8 percent of his threes. The rookie should keep getting opportunities to develop as a primary ball-handler, though his fantasy production could fluctuate until his shooting efficiency improves.

    Kings' Darius Acuff: Logs massive total in defeat

    Acuff notched 33 points (10-26 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 11-12 FT), two rebounds and four assists across 37 minutes during Friday's 128-120 loss to the Trail Blazers.Acuff bounced back in a big way, pouring in a game-high 33 points after an abysmal shooting performance in his NBA debut. Despite the colossal total, his shot beyond the arc still hasn't clicked, so he leaned on shot volume and a good showing at the charity stripe to reach it. He's playing heavy minutes as a starter for the 0-2 Sacramento Kings, and nights like this should keep him firmly in the lineup.

    Kings' Darius Acuff: Struggles with shot to start NBA career

    Acuff totaled 12 points (5-24 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists and three steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 121-96 loss to the Clippers.The seventh overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft displayed some shooting jitters in his debut, but Acuff was still able to contribute on the defensive end of the court. The Sacramento Kings figure to give Acuff all the minutes he can handle this season, especially with Ben Simmons (Achilles) no longer in the picture, and the Arkansas product could produce strong averages as a result, albeit with shaky percentages.
