Sacramento Kings History

The Sacramento Kings' lineage traces to Rochester, New York, where they played under four names, including the Royals, for 12 years (1945–57). Led by Hall of Famers Bob Davies, Bobby Wanzer and Arnie Risen, the team defeated the New York Knicks to win the NBA championship in 1951, the highlight of a seven-year run in the playoffs.

The Royals moved to Cincinnati for the 1957–58 season and added local college standout Oscar Robertson in 1960. Led by the "Big O," they advanced to the division finals in the 1962–63 and 1963–64 seasons, with the second year featuring contributions from Rookie of the Year Jerry Lucas.

After a five-year run of futility in the late 1960s and early '70s, the team relocated to Kansas City, adopting the name the Kings because the city's MLB team was named the Royals. For three years, the franchise divided its home games between Kansas City and Omaha, Nebraska, and were known as the Kansas City-Omaha Kings. Led by Coach of the Year Phil Johnson, they made the playoffs in 1974–75. In the 10 seasons that followed as the Kansas City Kings, the team made the playoffs four times, most memorably in 1980–81 behind guard Otis Birdsong.

The franchise relocated to Sacramento in 1985, but failed to post a winning record until the lockout-shortened 1998–99 season, when a team led by Chris Webber, Vlade Divac, Vernon Maxwell, Scot Pollard, and Jon Barry went 27-23. It was the first of eight consecutive seasons in the playoffs, highlighted by a trip to the 2002 Conference Finals.

In 2023, under new coach Mike Brown and All-Stars Domantas Sabonis and De’Aaron Fox, the Kings advanced to the playoffs, ultimately losing in the first round to reigning NBA champions the Golden State Warriors in a close seven-game series. Brown was named the 2022–23 season’s Coach of the Year, while Fox collected the league’s first Clutch Player of the Year Award.

    The Sacramento Kings is my number one team for over 30 years even though I’m from the Bay Area, Oakland is my hometown, but I’ve been in Sacramento for 30 years and now this is my hometown and the king is my number one team from then to now on. I am their #1 fan for Life.!

  • A very disappointing season

    by Napa Kings Fan on 4/19/25Golden 1 Center - SacramentoRating: 1 out of 5

    After achieving a first round playoff berth 2-seasons ago and acquiring Demar Derozen to join the squad, everything seemed to go downhill from there. The good news. There is a lot of talent on this team. I dont believe their record truly reflects their ability to play. Looking at how their schedule was stacked, roadtrips, back-to-backs, especially traveling east and such a load of talent in the Western Conference, and with all the team turmoil throughout the year, the team should have been able to convert about 10 of their losses into wins. A trade for a big - moving Sabonis to a Forward position would shore us up under the basket. I like mostly every player on the roster, but I know a few changes need to be made, but by doing so, I think there is a good core that can achieve better results. The team and the players feel genuine to me. Everyone is there to contribute and it's truly a team effort. If Brown had to go, then Doug Christie was an excellent replacement. A former King, announcer and assistant coach, Christie is a player-coach with the team's respect and attention. I hope he stays but given the overall disfunction, I wouldn't be surprised to see him let go. The bad news. Team Upheaval! Firing Mke Brown. Brown came in and turned the team around, giving it much needed structure and trying to instill defensive skills. That was a large ship to turn, but you could see improving defense, especially with Ellis and Murray. D'aaron Fox - love him or hate him, he had a huge impact on the team, whether in his ability to lead the team up the court, the distraction of trade rumors and the actual trade. A big chunk of the season was spent on speculation about his trade, starting when he refused a contract extension and the trade itself, if it would happen, when it would happen, what we might get for him trade-wise. Coaching departures - losing Jordi Fernandez started an exit of coaches from the team this year. Roster Roulette - this year the Kings lost Fox, Alex Len, Kevin Heurter, Colby Jones, Jordan McLaughlin and added Zack LaVine, Jonas Valančiūnas and Jake LaRavia. Comparing the team from end of season last year to this year, the players that remain are Sabonis, Monk, Tre Lyles and Keon Ellis - only 4 teammates. Injuries - all teams have injuries, but the injuries to Sabonis, Monk and LaRavia came at a crucial time down the stretch when the team needed to be a full strength to take on the daunting schedule. GM firing - within a couple hours of their play in loss, the firing of Monte McNair was the last nail in the coffin to sum up year of total disfunction, but let us not forget that instead of taking some time to evaluate next moves and interview new GM candidates the owner installed his new favorite within 12 hours of the firing of McNair. Gametime - attending a Kings game will bring you to your highest highs or your lowest lows. There seems to be an emotional connection and investment in this team. You live and die with them. It's hard to explain as I've never felt that way about any other sports team. I've loved other teams but have not had the same emotional connection. The team will elate you but more often that not break your heart. They are like a bad girlfriend you keep giving 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th chances... If you are looking for a bipolar rollercoaster, this is your team. If you're someone that believes in potential, this is your team. If you want consistency you are better off buying bonds. The games are generally very entertaining if you dont care about the outcome. What Now? As a worn cliche, only time will tell. The team is unwilling to go above the cap which limits acquisition potential. Does the team find a way to solidify itself? Can the players have the offseason to come together and discover who they are as a newly shuffled deck? Does ownership scrap the team and start over? My wish Give Christie a good contract and put your full faith in his ability to lead this team. Trade for a big to give Sabonis help under the basket. Pick a point guard and team leader whether it's LaVine or Monk. Give Murray another season to develop his chops - remember it took awhile for Fox to completely break out. Develop Keon Ellis. Get a buy in from Derozan: your guards can consist of LaVine, Ellis, Derozan and Carter. Forwards: Murray and Sabonis moved over as your starters and find a big like Bam Adebayo the could split time with Valančiūnas. Consistency! Make a plan for the starters and the bench and develop a team next year. I know we want to get to the playoffs and dare say a championship, but let's build a team first. Lets walk before we can run.

  • Had a blast and they WON

    by SeeMon Dine on 3/30/25Golden 1 Center - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    I had a really great at the Golden 1 Arena. Kings vs Trailblazers. My grand performance at halftime was the icing on the cake. I was able to score some really great tickets up close and the payment options to pay-in-four made it very affordable.

  • My review title

  • AWESOME game...

    by CAWarthog on 3/23/25Golden 1 Center - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    As recent transplants from Chicago, we are slowly becoming Kings fans. Needless to say, we were excited to see these two teams square off. From our perspective, either team winning would be just fine. Looking forward to our next Kings game...

  • It was my very first game ever and it was great!!!

    by Anewsoul1 on 3/23/25Golden 1 Center - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    OK it was my very first game ever and it was great!! Although I must be honest and say, I did not go there to see the Kings I went to see the Bulls. What helped me really enjoy the game was the One Court service. It was a great experience, knowing where the ball was and which hoop each team used. I did try to get descriptions from the radio because that’s how I usually listen to the game, but it was so far behind. Thanks to the One Cort service I was able to keep up with the score, shots, and fouls in real time. There was some times when the One Court service went off-line during the second half of the game, but I had no trouble getting the connection back. The One Court made the game really enjoyable for me as someone who is totally blind. Oh yeah! The crowd helped too!I really enjoyed the live game!! I’m ready to go again. Hopefully next season I will possibly get to see two games. Keep up with the great job for those of us who have disabilities. The accessibility of the game was excellent!! The Bulls won!! Go Bulls!!

  • The seats were great

  • Blinding, flashing and spinning lights. Too much.

    by DC on 3/21/25Golden 1 Center - SacramentoRating: 3 out of 5

    If the sensory overload makes you sick, then you won't repeat the experience. The flashing and spinning spotlights on both sides of the arena are at eye level in the upper deck. My wife is particularly sensitive to bright lights, so she doesn't want to go back -- ever. I'll try to work with the Kings to find seats that are shielded from the lights. I do want to return. I've been going to Kings games since 1985.
