Years ago, I spent over two weeks putting together a three part audio documentary about the 2002 season for the Sacramento Kings. It's some of my best work that I am incredibly proud of. If you are looking for something to kill the time this offseason, give it a listen. Part 1:…
The Sacramento Kings withdrew the two-way qualifying offer for Isaiah Crawford. That allowed Crawford to become an unrestricted free agent, and he signed a two-way contract with the Houston rockets.
Next Weds we have special guest @MattGeorgeSAC joining us for a segment!! So if you have any Kings or LOTR questions send them to us!!
From tonight's Locked On Kings Pod: Flip the script for the Kings and Warriors. Say Keegan Murray wanted out of Sacramento, but the Kings were asking for Kuminga or Podziemski. Warriors fans, you'd laugh and say "no chance".
The San Francisco Giants as a team (17) have only hit 6 more home runs than Athletics rookie Nick Kurtz has (11) in July.
NICK KURTZ. 4 HOME RUNS. Dude is playing on rookie difficulty.
Nick Kurtz in July (rank among AL hitters) AVG: .417 (1st) OBP: .488 (1st) SLG: 1.042 (1st) OPS: 1.529 (1st) R: 21 (1st) 2B: 13 (1st) HR: 10 (1st) RBI: 24 (1st) XBH: 24 (1st)
Nobody is saying Keon Ellis is untouchable. The Kings don't have to bail the Warriors out of a bad situation that they created by giving a piece that the Kings value more than the Warriors value Kuminga. He's an opportunity, not a necessity. And not getting him this summer…
So the 6th/7th man on a team set at 34.5 wins is untouchable? Alright man, y’all got it 😫

Shams with an update on the Kuminga situation. Mentions the Kings as one of 2 teams (the Suns) to make a concrete offer to the Warriors in a potential sign & trade. The Warriors don't want what both teams are offering. So it's the same as it's been over the last few weeks.

“We have a University [Sac State]…that is prepared as any in the country to move from FCS to FBS.” - Kevin Kiley Today, Congressman Kiley and Congresswoman Doris Matsui were on Capitol Hill to advocate for Sacramento State to move to FBS. From Sac State: They both addressed…
