Landing a player with all-time scoring ability like Durant would change the trajectory of any franchise. While other teams are rabidly pursuing the 33-year-old star, Sacramento Kings big man Domantas Sabonis took a light hearted approach to his recruitment strategy.</p><p>Sabonis was spotted practicing with Durant and other NBA stars in Los Angeles this offseason. When asked about his own team’s improvements over the summer, he made sure to bring up KD.</p><p><a href="https://basketnews.com/news-174992-sabonis-on-practicing-with-durant-and-irving-we-played-very-well-with-kyrie.html">Via BasketNews</a>:</p><blockquote>“Kings are doing well. Shooters were needed, so we took three shooters. I think there will be a few more trades… We are waiting because a lot can still happen. We are waiting to see what Kevin Durant will do (smiles.). Everything can change dramatically.”</blockquote><p>Sabonis continued to bring up Durant to the press, but cleared things up when asked about Sacramento’s actual chances of landing KD: “I don’t think it might happen. But maybe it will work out?”</p><p>Even jokingly, it is interesting to think about a trio of Durant, Sabonis and young point guard De’Aaron Fox. Combining Fox’s speed and passing ability with the offensive skill sets of KD and Sabonis would turn the Kings into a dark horse powerhouse. The Kings have improved their collection of role players this summer, perhaps adding the former Finals MVP would be the final piece necessary for contention.</p><p>Like Sabonis’ comments, that kind of speculation is mostly unserious. But, you never know.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Definitely.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NBA</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>Mathematically speaking, the Sacramento Kings are still in the running for an unlikely appearance in the playoffs via the Play-In game. Realistically, however, this team is on the verge of yet another forgettable season.</p><p>The Kings made some major moves during the February trade deadline, which included the addition of two-time All-Star big man Domantas Sabonis. While Sabonis’ partnership with Sacramento cornerstone star De’Aaron Fox has shown glimpses of brilliance, this duo has not yet reached its true potential.</p><p>It sounds like we’re not going to see this come to fruition this season, though. In a recent interview on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwrzlRVTxpQ&amp;feature=emb_imp_woyt">KHTK Sports</a>, Kings head coach Alvin Gentry all but confirmed the team’s plan to shut both stars down for the last few remaining games of the regular season.</p><p>De’Aaron Fox is currently dealing with a lingering hand injury and his absence for Saturday’s matchup against the Orlando Magic will mark his fourth straight missed game. According to Gentry, Fox is anywhere but close to returning:</p><blockquote>“It’s still a situation with the hand if you could see it, it’s still blue in the palm of it,” Gentry <a href="https://khtk.com/17525/gentry-cattles-325/">said</a>. “He’s working out everyday and doing everything that he possibly can, but obviously this isn’t a situation where we are going to rush anybody back.”</blockquote><p>As for Sabonis, the 25-year-old big man missed Wednesday’s clash against his former team, the Indiana Pacers, with a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/kings-news-domantas-sabonis-official-status-for-5-game-road-trip-after-worrisome-knee-injury/">bruised left knee</a>. It does not sound serious at all but it does seem as though the Kings have already decided to shut Sabonis down for the rest of the year:</p><blockquote>“What it is is just a bone bruise,” Gentry said. “Hopefully everything is going to fine there also… Obviously, once again I’ll tell you we will not take any kind of chance with him…We’ll be overly cautious if anything.”</blockquote><p>Obviously, Gentry did not say anything about shutting both of his stars down but it’s easy to read between the lines here. The Kings appear to have already accepted their fate this season and are already waving the white flag.</p><p>There’s no denying that the Fox-Sabonis partnership holds a lot of potential, but it’s highly likely that we will all need to wait for next season to see them in action again.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The front office had long hoped to land a star and get the team into the playoffs. Sabonis was the culmination of their efforts, as they traded budding star Tyrese Haliburton to pry him away from the Indiana Pacers.</p><p>So far, Sabonis has been just as productive in Sacramento as he was in Indiana but it hasn’t mattered much. The Kings have struggled and Sabonis’ most notable moment with the team was his <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/kings-news-domantas-sabonis-suspended-for-contact-with-official/">ejection and suspension</a> after making contact with a referee.</p><p>The struggles haven’t scared Sabonis, though. He told <a href="https://theathletic.com/3174661/2022/03/10/domantas-sabonis-unplugged-on-wanting-to-change-things-with-kings-trade-rumors-myles-turner-pacers-and-more/">The Athletic’s Sam Amick</a> that he wants to be in Sacramento to snap their 15-year playoff drought.</p><blockquote>I’m excited about the whole journey. It sucks that we have that (playoff) drought, but the fact that we can be part of something that can turn it around, you know, that’s the goal. Come in and change the perspective of this organization and what people think. We’re excited that we can be part of that and build it, you know? So I want to stay as long as I can. Everything has to go well, (but) I’m happy here. It’s awesome. The fans are great.</blockquote><p>The Kings have only been about as good as the Pacers have been since the trade, posting an <a href="https://twitter.com/statmuse/status/1501791839988305922?s=20&amp;t=dBE39V7V9hKv_itGR6vJPA">identical record</a> to Indy since the All-Star break. They are in 13th place in the Western Conference with a 24-44 record. Despite clinching their <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/kings-news-deaaron-fox-sacramento-clinch-embarrassing-record-never-seen-in-nbas-75-years/">16th straight losing season</a>, Sabonis is committed to breaking that streak.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
