Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox is not letting the latest accusations against him and his family go unnoticed. Apparently, according to Twitter users, Fox’s dad sent out a tweet (which has since been deleted) disagreeing with the team’s selection of Davion Mitchell in the 2021 NBA Draft. The said tweet didn’t sit well with some […]

Davion Mitchell has been selected by the Sacramento Kings with the No. 9 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Mitchell was a highly touted prospect in this draft due to his elite shooting ability. He is the perfect NBA guard as he is a two-way player that can fit into any system. Last season, Mitchell […]

Only a few weeks ago The NBA Lottery took place, finalizing the 2021 NBA Draft order. In turn, in this post, we’ll be doing a 2021 NBA Mock Draft: A Final Mock Edition. The Detroit Pistons won the first overall pick for the upcoming draft, which is huge for a franchise that has bought into […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have been rumored to be in pursuit of Sacramento Kings guard Buddy Hield, and according to the latest reports, they are increasing their efforts (and offer) to make a trade happen. Per Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer, the Lakers have “stepped up their efforts” to land Hield through a trade. Aside […]

The Los Angeles Lakers really want to make roster upgrades after losing in the first round of the playoffs this year. With LeBron James getting up there in age and Anthony Davis’ health often a question mark, having more reinforcements would be helpful. The Lakers have been linked to seemingly every big name out there, […]

With the 2021 NBA Draft, player-option deadlines, and free agency fast approaching, the Los Angeles Lakers are aggressively pursuing trades with, well, whoever will pick up the phone. Besides LeBron James and Anthony Davis, everybody is on the table. At the center of that table is Kyle Kuzma. The Lakers have been shopping him for […]

Rumor has it – one of the Sacramento Kings’ top scorers from last season might be on his way out this summer and no it’s not Buddy Hield. It’s not De’Aron Fox either. According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the main piece that may be on the trading block this offseason is none other than former […]

Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard shot down a report that he would be demanding a trade in the near future, but he didn’t exactly make a long-term commitment to the franchise.

The Sacramento Kings are rumored as a Ben Simmons suitor as the Philadelphia 76ers open up trade conversations involving the young All-Star. The Sixers reportedly want an All-Star-caliber player in return for Simmons, though, and that means the Kings would likely have to give up De’Aaron Fox to make a trade work. If Philly actually […]

With the NBA offseason quickly approaching, teams around the league are generating plans to improve their rosters. Superstars are a dime in a dozen, and Damian Lillard could be available soon. There has been no word from the Portland Trail Blazers saying Lillard is available, but the rumor mill is buzzing regardless. One team that […]

The first three years in the NBA for Marvin Bagley III have not gone according to plan. The Sacramento Kings forward has had trouble staying healthy for one, but even when he’s been on the court it’s been underwhelming.

After an impressive run in the 2021 NBA Playoffs, the Atlanta Hawks were eliminated on Saturday night.

For the Sacramento Kings, this offseason will be critical as they try and build around a couple of their key players in De’Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton. How they attack the 2021 NBA Draft and free agency will be noteworthy but might they dip into the trade market and move on from the bloated contract […]

The Sacramento Kings and their disgruntled young star in Marvin Bagley are in a bit of a pickle. The second overall pick from the 2018 NBA Draft has had a rough young career so far and his team’s success (or lack thereof) isn’t quite helping. Add the fact that other big names from his draft […]

The Brooklyn Nets built a super team with a Big 3, but they failed to make anything of it this year, losing to the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 7 in the second round of the 2021 NBA playoffs. Injuries were the real enemy of the Nets, as their big three played a limited amount of […]

The Sacramento Kings have long been craving some sort of stability within their franchise. One year after another has passed with the Kings fading out of postseason contention and the same beat goes on. It’s a franchise that hasn’t made the playoffs since the 2005-06 season. That’s almost unfathomable to imagine but it’s the reality […]

The Sacramento Kings were always one of the worst-run franchises in the NBA. Now, with the New York Knicks and Phoenix Suns rising from mediocrity in 2021, it is beyond obvious that the KANGZ are the worst of the lot.

Another Sacramento Kings season without a playoff berth (barring a miracle) is drawing to a close, and it’s finishing up even more disappointing for De’Aaron Fox, who hasn’t played in three weeks after testing positive for COVID-19. The Kings have actually played reasonably well without Fox of late, but they’re still three games back of the […]

Many players have said that Dallas Mavericks center Boban Marjanovic may be the nicest guy in the NBA. Not a single soul is doubting this claim.
