Sacramento, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Not even the return of DeMarcus Cousins could help the Sacramento Kings find the win column. Brandon Knight scored 20 points and O.J. Mayo and Jared Dudley each chipped in 19 to lead the Milwaukee Bucks to a 108-107 win over the scuffling Kings on Thursday night. Milwaukee, which has won three of its last four, made 56.5 percent of its shots from beyond the arc. Cousins, who returned from a 10-game absence due to viral meningitis, had a chance to win it in the closing seconds, but his jumper was off the mark as the buzzer sounded. He finished with game highs of 27 points and 11 rebounds in just under 33 minutes in the Kings fifth straight loss. Sacramento went 2-8 in Cousins absence and fell to 0-2 under interim coach Tyrone Corbin, who relieved Michael Malone of the head coaching duties this week. (Cousins) did a great job out there in trying to will us to a win, Corbin said. Ben McLemore went for 22 points on an efficient 8-for-10 shooting and Rudy Gay added 20 points in the setback. While Sacramento got its center back, the Bucks were without theirs as Larry Sanders served a one-game suspension due to a Flagrant-2 foul in Wednesdays loss to Portland. With the game tied at 81-81 entering the fourth, Cousins knocked down a pair of free throws to open the quarter before Dudley bookended an 11-1 run with a pair of baskets. Dudleys 3-pointer with 8:40 remaining gave the Bucks a 92-84 advantage. Cousins converted a three-point play with just over four minutes to go that cut the deficit to seven, then Darren Collison followed a Knight layup with a 3 to make it a 105-101 deficit. Gay continued to keep the momentum rolling for the Kings with a floater that preceded his tough layup that knotted the score at 105-105 with 1:01 remaining. Jerryd Bayless then drove the lane and left off a pass to Zaza Pachulia, who made the open layup to put the Bucks back in front. McLemore hit a pair of free throws at the other end to again tie the contest. On Milwaukees ensuing possession, Dudley missed a rushed 3, but Pachulia pulled down the rebound, was fouled and split the two free throws with 6.8 seconds on the clock. The Kings ran the final play through their best player. Cousins gained separation from Pachulia with a step-back jumper, however, his try was short and the Bucks held on. We wanted to get the ball in his hands, Corbin said of the final play. He had a good look. The Kings got an immediate lift from their big man in the opening minutes. Cousins netted eight points in the first 5:02 of the contest as the hosts jumped out to an 18-6 lead. Mayo proceeded to knock down a pair of 3-pointers, then his jumper with over a minute remaining in the quarter capped the scoring and brought the Bucks within 29-25 entering the second. With O.J. coming out, he gave us a spark offensively, said Bucks coach Jason Kidd. He kept us in there early. Milwaukee grabbed its first lead since the first minute of the game when Bayless hit a 3 for a 39-38 edge with under eight to play in the half. Knights trey with 5.2 seconds left helped the visitors to a 57-54 lead at the break. Game Notes Milwaukee wraps up its four-game road trip against the Clippers on Saturday ...

Two plays into the game, he was already in the Buckeyes record book. Guiton threw three of his four touchdown passes in the first six minutes, including a school-record 90-yarder to start the onslaught, and No. 4 Ohio State rolled to its 15th straight victory, 52-34 over California on Saturday night. "Thats pretty cool," Guiton said. "Im in my fifth year, getting my first start. Its a blessing." Guiton got the start in place of injured Braxton Miller and there was no drop-off in performance for the Buckeyes (3-0). He connected with Devin Smith on the deep ball on Ohio States second offensive play -- the longest from scrimmage in school history. He added a 47-yard touchdown to Smith and a 1-yarder to Chris Fields on fourth-and-goal as Ohio State jumped out to a 21-0 lead over the Golden Bears (1-2) less than halfway through the first quarter. Guiton completed 21 of 32 passes for 276 yards and added 92 yards rushing to lead the Buckeyes. "Hes a very good distributor," coach Urban Meyer said. "He gets the ball to the right people at the right time. What I was more impressed with with him were the downfield throws. Those were right on the dot, a few of them, and Devin Smith made some excellent catches." Jordan Hall added 168 yards on the ground and three touchdowns as Ohio State extended the longest winning streak in major college football by outgunning the Bears in a high-paced offensive game. With both teams running no-huddle offences for much of the game, the defences were scrambling as the teams combined for 86 points, 11 touchdowns and 1,111 total yards on 177 plays. Cals prolific freshman quarterback Jared Goff just missed his third straight 400-yard game to begin his career, going 31 for 53 for 371 yards with three touchdowns. But he also lost a fumble and threw an interception in the first quarter to put the Bears in an early hole they could never escape. "I felt like we had a good chance to make some plays early on," Goff said. "We kind of fell behind the eight ball there going down 21-0. That kind of hurt. But I was proud oof the way we fought back.dddddddddddd We never quit." Goff got little help from the running game or defence. Brendan Bigelow, who rushed for 160 yards and two touchdowns on four carries last year against Ohio State was held to 39 yards on 11 carries in the rematch. Cals injury-ravaged defence has allowed at least 500 yards every game this season under first-year coach Sonny Dykes and even the opportunity to face a backup quarterback in Guiton couldnt change that pattern. "I dont think were that far off," Dykes said. "Were a very young football team. If you just compare the roster in terms of starters, I think we had two seniors that started for us today. I think they had like 14, 15. Thats a big difference. We just got to group up. Weve got to improve. That falls on us as coaches to coach better and bring our players along and put them in a good position to be successful." Guiton had thrown just 26 career passes before stepping in during the first quarter last week against San Diego State when Miller left with a sprained left knee. Miller practiced sparingly this week but was unable to play in the game, giving Guiton his long-awaited shot as a starter. He was ready and on his second play found Smith behind safety Damariay Drew for the 90-yard play that delighted the thousands of scarlet-clad fans who made up nearly half of the crowd at Memorial Stadium. "Devin has world-class speed," Guiton said. "Sending him on deep routes in man coverage, were going to try to exploit that. I saw him beat his man and I tried to lay it up for him. He ran under it and he can do the rest." That started an action-packed opening quarter that featured 38 points, three turnovers and 445 yards of offence between the two teams. Despite that fast start, the Buckeyes only led 31-20 at the half as Goff threw a pair of TD passes and Dykes pulled out all the stops. On fourth-and-8 late in the half, Dykes appeared to send the punting unit out. But Goff,、
