The transfer of Tyrese Haliburton to Indiana, this is the real earthquake of summer Kings side last winter. Beyond this madness that the liars only expected, the arrival of Domantas Sabonis in exchange freed the roster from a deficit in painting.
The Kings finally have their axis 1-5 and had only to surround him with proud soldiers, brave, devoted to a cause that has known little devotion in recent years.
The arrival of Malik Monk is awesome, much more valuable than Donte DiVincenzo who was struggling to find his rhythm.

It’s been said 16 times, but the Kings haven’t played a single Playoff campaign in 16 years. The association between De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis finally raises a wind of hope for the cursed city, California’s dunce cap for far too long. The selection of Keegan Murray in the 2022 Draft could spell the end of bad luck: after having overlooked Luka Doncic and Trae Young in 2018 – for lack of a Marvin Bagley III described as one of the safe bets of the vintage – the Summer League of the new prospect suggests that the front office of Sac Town has finally had a hollow nose. Developing it correctly will be one of the « secondary » challenges of this 2022-23 season, just like integrating the 6 or 7 other newcomers not necessarily aware of what is being done under the paw… Mike Brown.

Yes, this season will also be that of Mike Brown’s big comeback as velleda on an NBA bench. Who is Mike Brown? A guy who will have to succeed where Alvin Gentry and Luke Walton have just failed, when before them nine other tacticians had already eaten the holiday wall in April. He has the experience of a dynasty and of modern basketball, he comes out of six years as assistant to Steve Kerr in Golden State. From there to transforming his new group into a basketball team, capable of maximizing the use of its offensive potential as much as of defending. Don’t worry about a dolphin, and don’t worry about a De’Aaron Fox Jrue Holiday.
