Nique Clifford Hits New Career-Best Mark

The Sacramento Kings watched Nique Clifford rise and become a trustworthy starter despite how the season's gone. 

But the rookie Clifford hit a new mark on Saturday -- the career-best kind. 

Clifford dropped 30 points on the Cleveland Cavaliers, which is now his best mark for the 2025-26 season. 

Clifford hadn't scored in the 30-point range since March 7, 2025, when he played for Colorado State and dropped 36 on the Boise State Broncos.
