Watch: Kings guard Davion Mitchell defines ‘pull the chair’ in this play against OKC

Certain moments highlighted Sunday’s NBA game between the Sacramento Kings and Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Kings won their third-straight game since the All-Star break 124-115 — and then hurried back to their nearby hotel to wait out a storm as tornado sirens sounded.

Kings guard De’Aaron Fox extended his streak of 30-point games, padding a Sacramento-era franchise record.

Legendary Sacramento radio play-by-play announcer Gary Gerould called his 3,000th game.

And guard Davion Mitchell defined the term “pulling the chair.”

In a defensive play against Thunder shooting guard Josh Giddey, Mitchell forced a turnover by pulling the chair, which means an offensive player is made to fall or stumble because a defensive player has backed away instead of standing their ground.
