With Kings basketball just a month away, there’s finally a little movement to discuss, from Darius Acuff Jr. and the young Kings at Rico Hines Runs to Jalen Duren’s uncertain future, Domantas Sabonis’ agent change and the possibility of Ben Simmons landing in Sacramento.
Doug Christie and Bobby Jackson completed the puzzle, Chris Webber became an MVP candidate, and the Kings won their first playoff series in Sacramento history as an entire city fell in love with its team.
The Sacramento Kings have (unfortunately) given us a few things to talk about this week.
The late Hall of Famer's name will appear on every jersey the Kings wear this season.
Sacramento is reportedly set to evaluate Cameron Payne, Elfrid Payton, and Victor Oladipo as it looks to fill its backup point guard spot.
After a 9-1 start and a brilliant first half, the Kings looked ready to take the next step. Instead, a second-half collapse and first-round date with the 67-win Lakers left Sacramento wondering whether this exciting new era had already hit its ceiling.
Yep, the Kings are playing at least 82 games again.
The future Hall of Famer is calling it after 18 seasons.
Chris Webber, Jason Williams, Rick Adelman, and Vlade Divac arrived amid chaos, skepticism, and an NBA lockout—but by spring, the Kings had rediscovered hope and announced the beginning of a new era.
The Kings' brief optimism vanished into a 27-win disaster, empty seats at ARCO, Mitch Richmond's growing frustration, and another painful season.
A lack of interesting Kings news didn't stop us from recording another pod this week.
Sacramento is reportedly exploring Westbrook and Oladipo to fill its backup point guard role while providing leadership and mentorship for rookie Darius Acuff Jr.
The Kings now have one more two-way contract slot left.
The former MVP's time in Sacramento has likely come to an end.
The Kings Herald Show (and Kings basketball) is back!
