I see the Kings are still rolling out the awful Monk-LaVine-DeRozan starting lineup. I guess we’ll be down double digits in the first quarter before Keon comes in.
“If it’s broke, why fix it?”
-Sacramento Kings
Go Kings…?
Domas looks like he took a Mike Tyson punch to the eyebrow. Split open and bleeding profusely…no foul.
Second dumb Monk turnover leading to an easy 2 for Memphis.
Dribble under the hoop, jump for no reason, pass it into 3 grizzly defenders? Seen that too many times
Jake of Laravia, where thy be next yearth?
Here, I hope. Too bad we’re hamstrung by what we can offer.

Best 1st qtr we’ve seen in a minute. Sac starts out hitting some shots, and the defense subsequently looks better.
Who are these guys?
Looks like the comments is just us optimists now LTB!
6th seed baby lol
Let’s GO!
The guys we saw until the recent losing streak?
I really just don’t know what happens to this team sometimes – the Clippers loss was disappointing but hard fought and understandable. And then they just disappeared for 3 games. I’d even give them half of a pass on the Knicks game because SEGABABA if they looked halfway combobulated, but no, it was just a vanishing act.
A mojo can be a fickle thing.
Carter looking like a guy who just needs game time, and some shooting reps before he starts stacking All-Star appearances. 5 minutes, 3 steals!
Nice one at the buzzer for Zach
So smooth. And so much range!
Kayte’s blouse looking explosive!
Griz played their entire active roster in the 1st half, except for…Marvin Bagley.
I didn’t even know he was still in the NBA. Maybe I should apply.
Domas is done.
It looked like he went down again in the tunnel.
Shit. Looks bad
This season continues to scream out rebuild. Tank, or at least keep draft pick.
It’s way too late for tanking. If you’re .500 and in the play-in after 66 games you might as well shoot your shot
Domas hurt his ankle. Dang, been a rough night for him. Looks busted. Ouch
He rolled it, there is no way to tell. Could be a sprain, a fracture, or a high ankle sprain, which would be my guess.
If it’s a sprain, it’s a really bad one. A fracture might actually be the best case scenario here
JV is very likely the starting center for the rest of the season
That would make it a bad night for Sac regardless of the final score
Can we please stop limiting Keon Ellis’ minutes?
Apparently not. At 19 with a few minutes left in the game.
Let Bane get his 50 and no one else makes anything
If Domas’ injury is as bad as it looks, we finish the season roughly the same way we started: a point guard from Kentucky, a shooting guard with questionable defense, DDR, Keegs and a Lithuanian center.
…and Kayte!
Nice to see them pressing the ball again. The last couple games they were just giving a free pass all the way to 3pt land, and we saw guys coming in hot every time up the floor
The increased energy and effort has been noticeable tonight.
I know they’re also down Ja, but they are really keeping it going without Domas. 4th will be interesting I’m sure
Devin Carter’s offense is hideous but his defense and motor are ridiculous. If a real offseason can fix the first part I think we might have a player.
Also, dude should just admit he’s balding terribly and Bic that shit like his dad.
Make your damn free throws and win this game!
I really hope Jake enjoys being in Sac. He deserves a new contract from us. He’s just one of those players a team needs
I enjoy watching him play basketball.
Isn’t there some weird restriction on what the Kings can directly offer him?
2 years, up to $5.1m per year.
Could we sign him to that deal, and then extend him for more money? Maybe a wink wink deal
I don’t know the rules around that.
Yeah that’s why I was hoping he likes it there lol he’s part of a winning team
Up big Lik, no need for those dumb passes
That was horseshit
That’s a weird foul rule.
