The Kings spoiled a season-best 33 points by Magic rookie Paolo Banchero.

Sacramento seemed to have full control of the game when Malik Monk's two free throws gave the visitors a 123-119 lead with just 14.1 seconds remaining in overtime.

However, Jalen Suggs hit two foul shots of his own with still 11.7 seconds to play. When Chuma Okeke turned a Monk turnover into a dunk, all of a sudden the score was tied at 123 with 6.6 seconds left.

The Kings then relied on Fox, who barely got past half-court before rising and nailing his game-winner.

Fox had forced overtime with a short jumper to tie the game with 25.4 seconds left in regulation.

Domantas Sabonis backed Fox in the scoring column with 25 points as part of a double-double with a team-high 11 rebounds. He also dished out a team-high six assists.

Meanwhile, Paolo Banchero (19 years, 358 days) became the 2nd youngest player in NBA history to have 30+ points and 15+ rebounds in a game. LeBron James achieved such feet (33 points, 16 rebounds) at 18 years 334 days in 2003.
