Sacramento 111; Chicago 98

SACRAMENTO, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- Doug Christie scored a season-high 22 points Tuesday night and Bobby Jackson added 22 as the Sacramento Kings remained unbeaten at home with a 111-98 victory over the Chicago Bulls.

The Kings are under .500 on the road, but have won their first six at Arco Arena, where they have had tremendous success in recent seasons. They were hardly threatened by the Bulls, who have not won in Sacramento since Nov. 23, 1997.
