Mitch Richmond

King’s career: regular season portion, 7 seasons, 517 games, 23.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.3 steals, 45.5% shooting from the field, 40.4% from 3-point range, 84.7% from the free throw line.

Kings career: playoff portion, 1 season, 4 games, 21.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 44.4 percent shooting from the field, 34.8 percent from 3-point range, 80.8 percent from the free throw line.

Mitch Richmond is a very special figure in the history of the Kings, and can be said to have played a role in carrying on the past and the future. After moving to Sacramento, the Kings initially had few splashes until 1991 when they traded for Mitch Richmond, one of the Big Three [RUN TMC] from the Warriors, and the team made a return to the playoffs.

In his seven years with the Kings, Mitch Richmond has consistently turned in star point guard level performances. In fact, he was the first King’s All-Star in the Sacramento era. Unfortunately, because of the lack of help, Richmond was unable to lead the team any further than just a ticket to the playoffs.

In 1998, the Kings drafted Jason “White Chocolate” Williams in the draft and hired Adelman as coach. That same year, Richmond was traded to the Washington Wizards for Chris Webber, kicking off a new era in the Kings’ history.

Bob Davies

King’s career: regular season portion, 462 games in 6 seasons, 14.3 points, 4.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game, 37.8% shooting from the field and 75.9% from the free throw line.

King’s career: playoff portion, 38 games in 6 seasons, 13.3 points, 4.3 assists, 34.4% shooting from the field and 78.8% free throw shooting.

As the heart of the Royals and a star in the NBA’s grassroots era, Bob Davis led the team to the only championship in team history in 1951, with championship content described separately. Bob Davis was the earliest representative of the Kings in the distant NBA’s founding years.

Despite not being a great shooter and having average numbers, Bob Davis ranks high in the team’s history as the oldest of the old and with a championship under his belt, so to speak. If there is any pity, it is that this player contact basketball time is very late, when the first time on the NBA stage he was almost 30 years old man, in the tail end of youth to catch up with the newborn sport and the league, is also a fortunate life.

Jerry Lucas

King’s career: regular season portion, 465 games in 7 seasons, 19.6 points, 19.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 49.9% shooting from the field, 78.3% free throw shooting.

King’s career: 23 games in 4 seasons in the playoff portion, averaging 16.2 points, 16.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists, shooting 44.4% from the field and 75.0% from the free throw line.

As a white power forward, Jerry Lucas, 203CM tall, was mainly active from the early 1960s to the early 1970s, and dedicated the best years of his playing career to the Cincinnati Royals, being the best player in the team at that time except for Oscar Robertson. However, during the years of working with Robertson, there have been rumors that the two actually confronted each other, the relationship is not amicable, the Royals so is not too far in the playoffs.

Because of the memory that can remember the shooting habits of most of the players in the league and used to grab rebounds, Jerry Lucas, who averaged 19 rebounds per game in his career, won the name of “memory master” and was a pretty impressive rebounding beast in the early days of the league. Incidentally, with his brilliant mind, Lucas mastered three foreign languages – Japanese, Russian and Italian – in addition to a master’s degree in economics.

Back in 1970, Lucas was traded to the Warriors and later to the Knicks. In the penultimate season of his career, Jerry Lucas took the Knicks to the championship as the centerpiece. The Royals duo could not win a championship, but each won a title after being separated, which seems to be destiny to say the least.

Chris Webber

King’s career: regular season part, 7 seasons 377 games, average 23.5 points 10.6 rebounds 4.8 assists 1.5 steals 1.5 caps, shooting 47.3% from the field, 23.8% from three, 69.1% from the free throw line.

King career: playoff part, 53 games in 6 seasons, 21.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals, 45.3% shooting from the field, 19.2% from 3-point range, 62.9% from the free throw line.

In the college era, as one of the [Michigan Five Tigers] Chris Webber, has long been famous for his gorgeous all-around power forward play; NBA era, leading the [King Five Tigers], known as the [King Webber] Chris Webber, is a generation of NBA fans classic memory.

Back frame, face frame, jump shooting skills are all available, but also has a large forward position in the extremely rare exaggerated passing imagination and concealment techniques, without Chris Webber, an epoch-making power forward to do the team’s main axis, there may not be a new century before and after the exciting, offensive magnificent Kings. Unfortunately, with less luck and bad timing, Chris Webber did not get a championship in his career, and the Hall of Fame was a long way from being recognized after he retired.

Oscar Robertson

King’s career: regular season part, 10 seasons 752 games, averaged 29.3 points, 9.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists, shot 48.5% from the field and 83.8% from the free throw line.

King’s career: Playoff portion, 39 games in 6 seasons, 29.7 points, 8.5 assists, 6.7 rebounds per game. Shot 46.0% from the field and 85.5% from the free throw line.

In terms of combat power, who is the best the Kings have ever had? The first generation super triple-double maker [Big O] Oscar Robertson, who can compete with him?

Back in 1960, when the Cincinnati Royals were still the Kings, they chose to use the era-specific [geographical designation] clause (giving up first-round draft picks and directly locking up local college star players) to grab Oscar Robertson, who had won three All-American college players in his college days.

After entering the league, Oscar Robertson then put up a phenomenal rookie season and even more dramatically refreshed the fan definition of a guard, becoming an early all-around warrior at guard in NBA history. In his second season, Oscar Robertson recorded a single-season stat line of 30.8 points + 12.5 rebounds + 11.4 assists. Incidentally, the all-time achievement of averaging a triple-double in a season, after holding it for 55 years, was achieved again by Westbrook in the Thunder era.

In 1964, as a superstar of the Cincinnati Royals, Oscar Robertson got the MVP award. The unfortunate thing was that the Royals led by Robertson never got a taste of the championship due to the overall lack of strength. In 1970, Oscar Robertson was traded to the Bucks, and then together with the then-young “Sky Hook” Jabbar won a championship. Looking back on Oscar Robertson, he left his peak years to the Kings history.

The top 10 representative players in the history of…

May 6, 2022May 6, 2022

The Kings may not have much of a presence in the modern basketball world, but I’m sure there are fans of all ages who still remember the Kings from their heartwarming days.

As a classic NBA team, the Sacramento Kings have moved their home court several times in their history, and their external names have changed back and forth: Rochester Royals, Cincinnati Royals, Kansas City-Omaha Kings, Kansas City Kings, and Sacramento Kings.

Looking back at the team’s history, the Kings have not been particularly impressive as a small-ball team, winning the NBA championship once (1951) and becoming the Pacific Division’s No. 1 team three times. Comparatively speaking, in retrospect, the Kings’ strongest years were the early 1950s, the late 1970s to early 1980s, and the mid- to late-1990s to early 2000s, which fans know and understand best.

When you think of the Kings’ all-time greats, who comes to mind?

In this article, I will take a look at the top 10 classic players in the history of the Kings for your reference by combining fame, statistics, and team age.

Jason Williams

King’s career: regular season portion, 208 games in 3 seasons, 11.3 points, 6.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 38.4% shooting from the field, 30.1% from 3-point range, 76.7% from the free throw line.

King’s career: playoff part, 3 seasons 18 games, averaged 9.6 points, 3.1 assists, 2.4 rebounds, 1.1 steals, shot 39.0% from the field, 33.3% from 3-point range, 92.3% from the free throw line.

If you want to talk about the strength of the King’s period and or contribution, Jason Williams is not going to appear in this position, including Kevin Martin, Ron Artest, Divac, Evans, and even a group of ancient players, are more suitable than him.

Just to choose the classic player who can represent the King, Jason Williams is sure to appear in the list. To be honest, Jason Williams is probably the most popular player in the Kings’ history, his charisma knows no bounds and his fan base has been growing instead of decreasing after his retirement.

Jason Williams rose to fame at Marshall University in the NCAA era. As the heart of the team, he averaged 17 points and 7 assists per game in his NCAA career and once led his team to a blowout victory over the University of Kentucky. Unfortunately, he was expelled from the varsity team for violating school rules and being criticized for his indulgent style on and off the court.

In the 1998 draft, the Kings were still willing to use the No. 7 pick to sign this ball-handling ability, passing imagination of the sky, playing style of street ball fancy style, the use of fake-movement of the problem of the newcomer, the team even gave him the [white chocolate] matching nickname to match the publicity, and then a hit.

As he conquered the home crowd every night with a variety of sound passes and flashy passes, Jason Williams’ fame grew, and his Kings No. 55 jersey was once sold out, and was even named a box office guarantee for the NBA team at the time, and was as beloved by fans as Carter, who was known for his dunks.

In 2001, the Kings traded him to the Memphis Grizzlies, along with Nick Anderson, and the Kings received Mike Bibby and Brent Price in the deal. It should be acknowledged that after this trade, the overall trend of the Kings was stronger, and White Chocolate gradually became stable and became a champion point guard in the Heat afterwards, but it doesn’t stop Kings fans, and even a generation of NBA fans, from still missing the good years of White Chocolate in the Kings.

DeMarcus Cousins

King’s career: regular season portion, 7 seasons, 470 games, 21.1 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.4 steals, 1.2 caps, 45.9% shooting from the field, 32.2% from 3-point range, 73.4% from the free throw line.

King’s career: Playoff portion, none.

Back in the 2010 draft, the Kings picked up young center DeMarcus Cousins with the No. 5 pick, who then started the Kings’ seven-year long Cousins era. A strong competitor for the No. 1 center in the West, all-around center skills, explosive ball-handling, and a fiery and irritable personality were all familiar labels for Cousins in the old days.

The unfortunate thing is that with the Kings’ poor performance in the use and development of other young players, the team was still unable to move forward with Cousins stealing the start. Time came in 2017 when the Kings started another mid-season rebuild by trading Cousins to the Pelicans. In the past 2010 generation, Cousins should be the first choice to represent the Kings.

DeMarcus Cousins

King’s career: Playoff portion, none.

Peja Stojakovic

King’s career: regular season portion, 518 games in 8 seasons, 18.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 46.1% shooting from the field, 40.4% from 3-point range, 89.4% from the free throw line.

King’s career: playoff portion, 57 games in 7 seasons, 17.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 41.9% shooting from the field, 35.4% from 3-point range, 90.8% from the free throw line.

When it comes to the classic Princeton system Kings, how can we skip Peja, the sharpshooter from Serbia? As a member of the [96 Golden Generation], Stojakovic was selected by the Kings at the No. 14 pick in the draft that year.

During his time with the Kings, Peja Stojakovic has been the team’s most relied upon outside scorer, having been selected as a three-time All-Star, and at his peak was the league’s second-team level small forward, winning the All-Star game twice during the three-point championship.

Back in 2006, the lost Kings rebuilt the team, Peja was traded to the Pacers for Artest, and then moved to the Hornets, Raptors, Mavericks and other teams. In his final year, Peja won a championship with the Dallas Mavericks and then announced his retirement.

Nate Archibald

King’s career: regular season portion, 6 seasons, 433 games, 25.2 points, 8.1 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 46.7% shooting from the field, 82.6% free throw shooting.

King’s career: 6 games in 1 season in the playoff portion, 20.2 points, 5.3 assists and 1.8 rebounds per game, 43.8% shooting from the field and 82.9% from the free throw line.

Nate Archibald may not be an up-and-coming name that particularly impresses modern fans, but the thing that needs to be reminded is that Nate Archibald was listed in the official selection of the 75th Anniversary Top 75 All-Time Greats that was introduced last year, which speaks volumes about his power.

Back in 1970, the Cincinnati Royals drafted Nate Archibald, who stood 185 cm tall. By 1973, the team moved to Kansas City and changed its name to the Kings, and Archibald was at the top of his game, becoming the real king of the Kings in the early seventies, winning the nickname “Pixie” with his great dribbling ability and scoring skills. Unfortunately, the Kings’ overall strength at that time was average, and due to injuries, Nate Archibald’s peak ended at the age of 27.

Except the retired number, there is also a number…

The Sacramento Kings, founded in 1948 and joined the NBA, were the most renamed team in the NBA until 1985 when the team settled in Sacramento and changed its name to the Sacramento Kings.

Kings Jersey

For the Kings we may be impressed by the white chocolate Jason Williams pleasing fancy passing, but the real heyday of the Kings is into the 21st century, the Kings under the head coach Rick Adelman’s Princeton tactical system, with Chris Webber, Peja, Bibby, Divac and other players as the core, with Bobby Jackson, Turkoglu as the main “bench bandits”, become the most ornamental game in the NBA powerhouse.

However, the good times did not last long, as it has never been able to break out of the West, the Kings trade the trade, the retirement of the retirement, from then on has been in the swing of the road long, in the long history of the Kings retired jerseys also reached as many as 11, respectively, No. 1 Archibald, No. 2 Richmond, No. 4 Chris Webber, No. 6, the fans: the moral of this is that the fans are the team’s sixth man , No. 11 Bob Davis, No. 12 Stokes, No. 14 Oscar Robertson, No. 16 Peja No. 21 Divac, No. 27 Jack Twyman, No. 44 Sam Lacy. The good thing is that the Kings have also drafted a lot of quality rookies in recent years, and I wish the Kings the best of luck with the birth of their next retired jersey.

Boston Celtics, as the traditional powerhouse of the league, the team with the most number of championships, the “Green Army” Celtics have emerged many superstars, the number of retired jerseys also reached 22, becoming the NBA’s most retired jersey number of the team.

NBA number regulations: 0-99 numbers can be chosen except for the retired players’ numbers.

In addition, there is another number can not wear, that is, 69, when Rodman had tried to apply, but the league did not approve.

DeMarcus Cousins considers as the best in team history,…

May 6, 2022

Recently, as the NBA regular season came to an end, the playoffs, which fans have been concerned about for a long time, finally kicked off. However, for some teams, it has been difficult to taste the playoffs, and they have even been unable to make the playoffs for many years in a row. At the end of this season, the Kings set a very embarrassing record, since 2006, they have failed to make the playoffs for 16 consecutive years, which set a new record for the longest time in the league.

In the meantime, DeMarcus Cousins, who was once a pillar of the Kings and has been reduced to an ordinary rotation player because of a major injury, recently launched a diatribe against his old boss in an interview, and his words were quite intense, especially about the Kings’ inaction, his position in the Kings’ team history and so on. So, let’s see if what Cousins said is objective, and if he can be inducted into the Hall of Fame and retire his jersey?

About the Kings’ inaction, is that really the case?

First, the reporter mentioned Cousins’ past time with the Kings during the interview, and Cousins was blunt: “What have they ever done for me except read my name in the draft?” There is no denying that Cousins played for the Kings in the seven seasons, the team has always been the existence of the NBA fish, but Cousins should not be so accusatory of the old boss.

The team has some problems with player development, such as Evans, who averaged 20+5+5 in his rookie season compared to James, but was asked to play the No. 2 or even No. 3 position instead, which is a real waste. However, the team saw the potential in Cousins that year, and was determined to start a new round of team building around him as the core.

Although it seems that the Kings’ draft vision is not very good today, but that year, whether it is the outside of Fredette, Ben McCollumore, Stauskas, or the inside of Thomas Robinson, Papayannis and Cauley-Stein, are many NBA scouts, whether in the NCAA, or in Europe, they are outstanding individual ability, and numerous awards players. Not being able to play in the NBA, they themselves have a big problem.

And the Kings chose them either to equip Cousins with shooters on the outside or to find help on the inside, and even got veterans like Gay and Rondo through trades as well, all coming to complement Cousins. So it seems that Cousins should not bash the old boss. Of course, the Kings do both draft vision and training methods, there is also a certain problem.

should be retired jersey? The possibility is too low.

In addition, reporters in the interview, is also mentioned to retire the jersey a thing. Indeed, Cousins has played in Sacramento for nearly seven seasons, averaging 21.1 points and 10.8 rebounds per game, both in terms of data and his performance on the court, are worthy of being recognized. But to retire the jersey, it is not very likely. Before that, we have to talk about one more issue, which is Cousins’ outright statement that he is the best in the Kings’ team history. However, it seems that the former All-Star inside linebacker, is a little too high on himself. The Kings history is not too illustrious, but there is no shortage of stars, “Big O” Oscar Robertson, his record of averaging a triple-double in a season was not broken until the emergence of Willis.

He was a dominant force in the Kings’ history, not to mention bringing the only regular season MVP trophy in the team’s history. Nate Archibald, the “elf”, won the scoring and assists championship in that era of giants, which is still unmatched by anyone today. The new century Chris Webber, led the team to play the “Princeton” whirlwind, once and the Lakers formed a rivalry, these legends, dare to ask Cousins can suppress which?

Secondly, when it comes to retiring the jersey, just saying it’s unlikely may be all a bit euphemistic, I should say it’s completely unlikely. Although Cousins is the only team all-star in the past ten years with the Kings and also made the best team, but for the team’s contribution is far from enough.

As the first to join the NBA’s seniors, the Kings have a total of 10 retired jerseys in team history, and none of them are legends who have contributed a lot to the team, not to mention the close relationship with the team. Therefore, the probability of retiring Cousins’ jersey is basically zero.

into the Hall of Fame? The odds are still against being inducted.

Finally, when Cousins was asked if he could be inducted into the Hall of Fame, he was also referring to the former Kings star, Vlade Divac. It’s true that Divac has very few career accolades, with only two All-Stars and one weekly best. But Divac’s identity is very special, he is the earliest group of European players who played in the NBA, his experience in the NBA, for the development of European basketball and and the NBA continuous has a very big role in promoting, whether during the service, or after retirement, he has always contributed to basketball, which is the biggest reason why Divac can be inducted.

And Cousins himself has limited ability to lead the team with an average contribution from the court. And with 2 second-team honors, 4 All-Star and 6 weekly best, the odds are that he’ll stay there going forward. Even Maddie, who is questioned by fans, has 2 bursts and 2 scoring titles, not to mention other honors that Cousins does not have. Therefore, Cousins will almost not enter the Hall of Fame in the future.

How many jerseys did the Sacramento Kings retire?

Founded in 1948 and joining the NBA, the Sacramento Kings are a professional basketball team belonging to Sacramento, California, USA, part of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference of the National Men’s Basketball Association (NBA).

Among those who retired their jerseys as far as I can remember are the following!

Chris Webber

Chris Webber In his 15-year NBA career, Chris Webber has averaged 20.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.44 steals and 1.44 caps in 37.1 minutes per game; 831 total games played. Has broken into the playoffs 10 times and played in 80 games, averaging 18.7 points, 8.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game in the playoffs.

Peja Stojakovic

Peja Stojakovic is often considered one of Serbia’s greatest basketball players and a renowned NBA scorer. on December 17, 2014, the Sacramento Kings held a jersey retirement ceremony for Peja’s No. 16 jersey before the game at home against the Oklahoma City Thunder. in May 2018, he became the vice general manager of the NBA’s Sacramento Kings

Vlade Divac

Vlade Divac has spent most of his career in the NBA and is best known for his passing skills. He was one of the first European players to strike gold in the NBA in the late 1980s and was named one of the top 50 contributors to the Champions League. On March 31, 2009, the Kings hosted the Hornets and held a jersey retirement ceremony for Divac during halftime.

In the end I personally think including Bibby Martin also gave the Kings a lot of credit, but unfortunately did not retire their jerseys!

The only man in NBA history who replaced Kobe…

May 6, 2022May 6, 2022

Who in the NBA can replace Kobe alone, is the omnipotent James? Is it the year in the first prize Iverson? Or the peak of Maddie? These are not, if according to the peak of three consecutive Kobe, the NBA should not be able to replace him. Because if the Lakers chose O’Neal that year, trade Kobe, only to have the opportunity to see the person who can single for Kobe.

Today to talk about the 1996 single-for-Kobe man, Divac, who was drafted by the Lakers in 1989, just a 26th pick and also a 2.16-meter inside big center. But his rookie season averaged 8.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.5 caps turning him into the best rookie ace at center. His best season was 1994-95, averaging 16 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 2.2 caps per game, which is considered a very good center, but in that era of the Big Four centers, such numbers were not nearly as good.

So, in the 1996 season, the Lakers’ general manager West traded for O’Neal, and traded Divac for Kobe, the Hornets’ No. 13 pick, and thus, the OK team pulled back the curtain on the history of the title race. After two seasons with the Hornets, Divac moved on to the Kings and his numbers slowly began to decline. In his final year, 2004-05, he returned to the Lakers as a backup and played with Kobe for one season, before retiring.

This one once single for Kobe’s man, his NBA career no championship, only one all-star replacement, career average 11.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.4 caps of qualified data. Divac got the honor of retiring the Kings’ jersey, and he also gave Kobe a No. 8 Hornets jersey as a souvenir, and Kobe addressed him and hugged him fondly, after all, he is the only man on earth who has ever single swapped Kobe.
