The relationship between DeMarcus Cousins and the Sacramento Kings‘ management has been shaky to say the least over the past couple of years. Many believe that it’s only a matter of time before the team decides to trade the talented center – some say it’s coming as soon as December – and now the chatter is starting […]

The Toronto Raptors have officially filed a protest with the league office over a timekeeping error in Sunday’s three-point loss to the Sacramento Kings, according to ESPN’s Marc Stein. After a deflection by Kings center DeMarcus Cousins from an out-of-bounds play, Raptors swingman Terrence Ross beat the buzzer with a three-pointer, releasing the shot with 0.5 […]

After Sunday’s game between the Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors ended with complete controversy, the NBA has responded. Terrence Ross‘ game-tying three-pointer at the buzzer was waived off after a review was made following a timekeeping error. The referees’ decision left Raptors’ players, fans, and coaches (especially head coach Dwane Casey) livid as another loss […]

During the first half of the game between the Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors on Sunday night, Rudy Gay was near the baseline when he saw a stray shoe on the floor. He quickly grabbed it and threw to the stands. It was a good gesture from him not to leave it there so no […]

When Terrence Ross drilled a long three-pointer to beat the buzzer in regulation on Sunday against the Sacramento Kings, many believed the game has been sent to overtime, including the person responsible for the Toronto Raptors‘ Twitter account. However, the game ended in bizarre fashion as the referees had to review the last play and saw […]

After seeing his team lose their fourth straight game at the hands of the L.A. Clippers on Friday, Sacramento Kings head coach Dave Joerger has made it clear that he’s seen enough and will look to make some changes to his lineup. The Kings’ bench tactician hinted on playing small-ball once again and having his All-Star, DeMarcus […]

Rap artist Kanye West had a concert in Sacramento on Saturday where 13,000 fans attended and looked forward to hearing him perform his hits live.

The Sacramento Kings have been mired in trade rumors through the start of the regular season, but after Friday night’s 121-115 discouraging loss against the L.A. Clippers, it’s evident that DeMarcus Cousins is the only constant in the team. “I’ve seen enough. We’re going to play small,” head coach Dave Joerger told ESPN. “DeMarcus is going […]

The start of the season for the Sacramento Kings have not gone according to plan. They are currently ranked 11th in the Western Conference and are on a 4-8 record, including a three-game losing skid. Their All-Star center, DeMarcus Cousins, recently gave his thoughts on what has been causing them to lose this much in […]

Rudy Gay has been on the Oklahoma City Thunder’s radar, seemingly since the departure of Kevin Durant. When KD left, it left the Thunder depleted on the wing more than ever before, especially when it comes to a scoring punch. The addition of Victor Oladipo has helped, but the Thunder could still use some help […]

Omri Casspi showed everyone last year that he is one of the league’s better shooters. He is very skilled at moving to the open spot and finding the holes in the defense. This year, he has only been playing 15.3 minutes per game. That is not the amount he’d hope to see because he believes he could help his […]

Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins is entering his seventh year in the league, six of those seven years have been filled with trade rumors due to his volatile temperament and the organization’s lack of stability for the past decade. This time, though, it looks as if Cousins might be on the move once and for all, […]

The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Sacramento Kings 101-91 on Thursday night but not went right for those wearing the Purple and Gold, or at least for one Lakers fan who supported his team on the wrong night, wearing the wrong uniform. Prior to the beginning of the second quarter, the arena Kiss Cam panned across the […]

When the Los Angeles Lakers traveled to take on the Sacramento Kings on Thursday, the storied rivalry between the two California-based teams was seemingly reunited. Besides the Lakers having a great comeback win, DeMarcus Cousins and Julius Randle angrily exchanged words, and D’Angelo Russell had a not-so-nice reply to one Kings fan’s sign. The sign […]

Sacramento Kings forward Omri Casspi has been part of a lot of trade rumors since last summer, but nothing materialized and he has remained with his team. The 28-year-old Israeli international was asked recently about it and made it clear that the Kings are not looking to move him nor did he request for a trade from […]

The Sacramento Kings have had trouble winning games this season sitting at a 4-7 record through Friday night. Getting acclimated to coach Dave Joerger‘s system has been a work in progress, and it has put the Kings in the direct line of trade rumors. One player rumored by ESPN’s Marc Stein to be moved is […]

DeMarcus Cousins was asked postgame about his altercation with Julius Randle at the end of the Sacramento Kings 101-91 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. “Just some friendly UK (University of Kentucky) love,” Cousins told Ros Gold-Onwude of CSN Bay Area. “It’s pretty sad when opposing teams let it be known what their game plan is, […]

DeMarcus Cousins could be wearing a different jersey after the All-Star break. According to a report by ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, the Sacramento Kings center is “extremely unlikely” to re-sign with the team once he becomes a free-agent and the Kings could maximize his trade value by giving his destination team a full year of his […]

After Thursday night’s Los Angeles Lakers 101-91 win over the Sacramento Kings, forward Julius Randle and center DeMarcus Cousins had a brief exchange of words in what many thought could turn into something bigger. The two players got a little too close for comfort and the Lakers teammates came to separate the two before anything more […]

The Sacramento Kings 102-94 win over New Orleans on Tuesday night wasn’t just another loss for the still-winless Pelicans, but also one of bizarre circumstances. The referees ordered both teams to replay 18.9 seconds of the second quarter after the halftime break because they miscounted the number of fouls in the first half. A foul late […]

The Sacramento Kings have waived guard Jordan Farmar, according to Marc J. Spears of The Undefeated. After a brief two-game stint and 37 total minutes of playing time with the team, Farmar has served his purpose — playing the spare minutes to avoid burning the tires on starter Ty Lawson. With the Kings’ ninth game of […]

While it might not be Shaqtin’-a-Fool-worthy; Miami Heat broadcast announcer, Eric Reid, struggled to call Toronto Raptors shooting guard DeMar DeRozan by the right name, introducing him as “DeMarcus DeRozan” instead.

He may have signed a max contract last summer with the Miami Heat, but that does not reflect how difficult it was for Hassan Whiteside to reach this point of his career. After being drafted 33rd overall in the 2010 draft, the 7-foot-center bounced between the Sacramento Kings and their D-League affiliate, the Reno Bighorns. Whiteside failed […]

DeMarcus Cousins had picked up his sixth foul and left the game frustrated at the night’s officiating.

Matt Barnes had a few choice words for the referees after the game ended and before he left the […]

The Sacramento Kings will temporarily bolster their point guard position with the signing of Jordan Farmar, the team announced Wednesday. The Kings have been looking to add depth at the position after Darren Collison‘s eight-game suspension, but per league rules, a player cannot be put into the “suspended” list until after five games, freeing up a temporary […]

Rudy Gay is out for blood this season. He’s in a contract year, plus there’s the possibility of landing on any other team than the Sacramento Kings, so he’s gonna put the pedal to the medal every chance he gets on the floor. The 6-foot-8 Connecticut product wasted no time on Monday night’s 106-95 loss […]

The NBA has fined Sacramento Kings‘ center DeMarcus Cousins $25,000 for throwing his mouthpiece into the stands during their win last Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It took less than a week for DeMarcus Cousins to get fined. pic.twitter.com/zcLhwd3MMd — Adi Joseph (@AdiJoseph) October 31, 2016 The incident occurred with only 37.2 seconds remaining in […]

Part of the “baptism” NBA rookies go through is being asked to do to some hilarious things for their team and its veterans. The Sacramento Kings seem to take this tradition to heart and make sure their first-year players continue to do some tasks regularly. Last month, Omri Casspi gave Georgios Papagiannis, Skal Labissiere, and […]

Minnesota Timberwolves‘ guard Ricky Rubio suffered an elbow sprain during the fourth quarter of their game against the Sacramento Kings and will be evaluated on Sunday to find out the extent of the injury. #Twolves head coach Tom Thibodeau tells the media after the gm that Ricky Rubio suffered a sprained right elbow. He will be […]

If you had a Top 5 list of who you thought might lead the league in technical fouls, DeMarcus Cousins would have to be in it. Except this time he didn’t get a technical… well at least not for now he didn’t. As the Sacramento Kings led by four with 37.2 seconds left in the game, […]

Tim Duncan might be retired from the NBA, but at least we know he still watches the team from afar. Duncan is no longer interested in the grind of a long NBA season, but his humor is well in tact. San Antonio Spurs broadcaster Sean Elliott shared a text message he received from his former teammate […]

Kings center DeMarcus Cousins had a hard time addressing home fans at the regular season inauguration of the Golden 1 Arena in Sacramento, getting emotional seconds into his speech and cutting it short earlier than he would’ve liked. Cousins was received with a loud ovation even before taking the microphone, basking in the cheers of […]

Chicago Bulls guard Rajon Rondo is displaying his leadership skills in a manner the team didn’t quite expect. He started early in the summer with the rookies and guys who wouldn’t even make the team. Those instances included asking to attend summer league to work with the team’s rookies. He took the opportunity to travel with the […]

The experiment of pairing up Rajon Rondo and DeMarcus Cousins in the Sacramento Kings‘ lineup is now over as last year’s results did not prove that it worked.

This season will be the sixth for Sacramento Kings‘ center DeMarcus Cousins young career, but that’s not the only sixth he’ll have this year. After playing for five coaches so far, Dave Joerger is now at the helm and will be the team’s head bench tactician After the much-publicized feuds he’s had with his previous […]

The last time the Sacramento Kings had a winning season was 11 years ago during the 2005-2006 campaign, but after winning their season opener against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night, it gave the team more reason to believe that this is the year they can duplicate that feat. Their blowout win was the perfect start they […]
