The big news out of all of this is that the city is once again turning to local sponsors to showcase the city's support for the franchise. This is similar to what the city did two years ago, when they were able to secure commitments for local sponsorships that had gone untapped by the Maloofs.

The news that Sacramento may pitch to the Board of Governors earlier than April's BOG meeting is also interesting. There had been discussion previously that the BOG could begin their review of a Sacramento buyer group prior to the BOG meeting, but this is the first I can recall hearing Sacramento may make an actual presentation before April 18th.

One other tweet worth noting:

Stay tuned.
