I’m never shy to criticize the Sacramento Kings’ decisions, along with most of the local media. The team makes boneheaded move after boneheaded move and never seems to learn from mistakes.
Russell Westbrook has accomplished enough throughout his NBA career to be picky. The 36-year-old is a future Hall of Famer, and didn’t have any desire to make a desperate move just to suit up for a team in 2025-2026.
The Sacramento Kings are making a roster shake-up in their frontcourt. As Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints reported, the Kings are expected to waive rookie forward Isaac Jones if they can finalize an agreement with free-agent big man Precious Achiuwa.
The all-time list of NBA All-Stars is obviously long, and notably distinguished. However, there are some players — for various reasons — who the casual, or even most-dedicated, NBA fans can't recall having earned All-Star nods.
The Kings have reached a contract agreement with free agent forward/center Precious Achiuwa, reports Shams Charania of ESPN (Twitter links). According to Charania, Sacramento is expected to waive second-year forward Isaac Jones in order to make room on the roster for Achiuwa.
The Sacramento Kings wrapped up their four-game road trip with a 124-130 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Monday night to return home with a 1-3 record. The Kings played a decent game, but never held the lead and couldn’t get enough stops down the stretch to overcome three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokić.
In a game that oddly felt like the Kings could both still find a way to win down to the final minutes, while simultaneously feeling like a game they should be getting blown out.
On Monday night, the Sacramento Kings made the trip to Ball Arena to face the Denver Nuggets. This marked Russell Westbrook’s first visit in Ball Arena as a Kings player, and it’s clear that he remains beloved among Nuggets fans even though he only spent one year with the team.
The Sacramento Kings haven’t had the strongest start to the 2025-26 season. Although a 135-133 win against the Milwaukee Bucks gives them some reason to feel positive about their future, it is a challenge to overlook the immediate issues.
The Kings are weighing a move for veteran big man Precious Achiuwa, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer. And if a deal gets done, Isaac Jones will likely be the roster casualty, per ClutchPoints’ Brett Siegel.
The Sacramento Kings are at a modest 2-4 through first six games of the season, but if there's one thing going right for them early in the year, it's Zach LaVine.
The Sacramento Kings are coming off a dramatic win in Milwaukee, and their next goal is ending a losing streak against the Denver Nuggets. Sacramento has lost five straight to the 2023 NBA champs but has a chance to snap that streak Monday night in Denver.
The Sacramento Kings refused to quit Saturday night in Milwaukee, clawing back from an 11-point first-quarter deficit to outlast the Bucks 135-133 in a game that had fans on the edge of their seats until the final buzzer.
The Kings needed a win they could actually feel good about. And they finally found one in Milwaukee. Zach LaVine scored 31 and Sacramento held off the Bucks 135-133 on Saturday.
Maybe the most surprising player among the NBA's current leading scorers, Zach LaVine found familiar territory while leading the Sacramento Kings to a win on Saturday night.
Zach LaVine's 31 points led a quartet of Sacramento scorers to post at least 24 as the Kings snapped a three-game losing skid with a135-133 road win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday.
The Los Angeles Lakers didn't have Luka Doncic or LeBron James but still got a 51-point game from one of their players — thanks to the Sacramento Kings defense.
