SACRAMENTO -- The Sacramento Kings overcame the third-quarter ejection of center DeMarcus Cousins to defeat the Utah Jazz, 108-97, Saturday night before 12,239 at Sleep Train Arena. The Kings (4-9) were led by Tyreke Evans' 27 points, while Jason Thompson scored 16 and grabbed nine rebounds. Evans also handed out five assists and grabbed five rebounds. The Jazz (7-7) were led by Randy Foye's 17 points. Foye, however, scored just four points in the final three quarters. Cousins was ejected by referee Gary Zielinski with 1:35 remaining in the third quarter. Cousins was whistled for a personal foul while defending Enes Kanter. Cousins argued the call and received the first technical. Shortly thereafter, Cousins could not leave Zielinski alone and quickly received his second and disqualifying technical. Cousins finished with 14 points and nine rebounds. Cousins is tied with New York’s Carmelo Anthony for the league lead with five turnovers. Kings coach Keith Smart said...
