Michael Malone pleased with Sacramento Kings defense

By , Reporter
Sacramento Kings coach Michael Malone says that his side put in a "great defensive effort" to beat the Chicago Bulls.

Sacramento Kings coach Michael Malone has praised his side's "great defensive effort" during their 103-88 win over the Chicago Bulls.

The hosts were behind in the first quarter, but DeMarcus Cousins led the comeback while the Bulls were restricted to just 59 points in the final three quarters.

Malone told reporters: "This was a team that manhandled the Clippers on the road a few days ago. We held them to 59 points in the final three quarters. That was a great defensive effort."

The Kings play again on Saturday when they face the Minnesota Timberwolves.
