Flirts with double-double in loss

Monk's playoff contributions were critical to the Kings' success, and the Kentucky product was one of the best sixth men in the quarterfinals. Monk averaged 19.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists in the series against the Warriors. The 25-year-old has one more year on his contract with the Kings, and after beating out Davion Mitchell and Terence Davis for bench minutes, his place in the second unit should be on solid ground next season.

Posts 22 points in defeat

Sabonis scored effectively but his rebounding numbers were dwarfed by Kevon Looney's 21 boards. His fantasy total was aided by seven assists and two blocked shots, but the Kings' interior was solidly outmatched by Golden State's front line. Despite the disappointing final result, Sabonis ended the season as one of the league's most productive rebounders, trailing only Anthony Davis with 12.3 rebounds per game.

Abysmal line in final game

Barnes was unable to make an impact in the loss, and the team relied on Malik Monk to pick up the slack while Barnes and Kevin Huerter struggled. Barnes' result matched his second-worst total of the season, with the other four-point result also coming against the Warriors back in late October.
