Before acquiring Valanciunas, Sacramento had a team-low 107.0 offensive rating in the non-Sabonis mins.

Since adding JV, they have a 114.7 ORTG in those mins.

In 9 games, he has the highest ORTG on the team (119.8).

Not far behind Cleveland's league-leading 122.2 ORTG.

Zach LaVine has 18 points in the fourth quarter and it’s not even halfway over.

G1C is loving it, and so are his teammates.

That’ll secure a Kings win tonight.

The Kings keep teasing what seems to be a Roy Al return during timeouts...

Kyrie Irving with a casual layup, giving Dallas a two-point lead with 15.4 sec remaining.

God damn. LaVine throws down a mean lob from Malik.

Feels like he's cutting with a bit more force today, and his teammates are finding him.
February 11, 2025 at 2:30 AM
Ridiculous outlet pass from Domantas Sabonis, finding new teammate Zach LaVine in transition.

LaVine threw it down over Kessler Edwards. Wanted the and-one.

Domantas Sabonis on the Kings trading for Jonas Valancuinas earlier today:

“I think he’s all about this culture. He’s tough, he plays every game, and I think he’s going to help us a lot off the bench.”
February 6, 2025 at 5:44 AM
The Sacramento Kings officially announce the Jonas Valancuinas trade.

They sent out 2028 and 2029 seconds in the deal.
February 6, 2025 at 2:02 AM
The Kings have their best offensive rating with Sabonis on the floor (117.4) but worst when he sits (106.3).

Adding Valancuinas, who can score on the interior and rebound/screen effectively, should help that fall off.
February 5, 2025 at 10:27 PM
Newest King Zach LaVine showing of his new threads.

His introductory presser is starting now.

Start of a new era in Sacramento.

McNair on the Fox trade: “The way that it was very public, that made for a unique market, but I also think our group did a great job of cultivating a market to ultimately get what we wanted in return.”

“We were not going to settle for less than we wanted. So, when we got that we made the deal.”
February 5, 2025 at 6:40 PM
Yeah... 21 points in the second half for DeRozan.
February 4, 2025 at 3:18 AM
Malik Monk knocks down a tough bank shot over Jaden McDaniels early in the clutch.

Getting the opponent's toughest defender as this game winds down.
February 4, 2025 at 3:11 AM
Keegan Murray has 17 points at the end of the first quarter.

Getting a lot more shots up (6/8 FG) tonight.
February 4, 2025 at 1:39 AM
No other additions to the Fox/LaVine trade as the Kings make it official.

Sacramento GM Monte McNair on adding LaVine:

“He is a gifted scorer, and his athleticism will make an impact on both ends of the floor.”
