Domantas Sabonis, Donte DiVincenzo, Justin Holiday, Jeremy Lamb, Trey Lyles and Josh Jackson. The Kings approach the end of the season with six new faces, and that’s more than last offseason. The leaders took a 180° turn by separating from Tyrese Haliburton to bet on an All-Star interior and thus balance their attack. The workforce has been changed to 40%, and De’Aaron Fox see it positive.
” I think the vibe is definitely a bit better” believes the Kings point guard. ” It’s definitely different when guys come into new situations, guys coming from Indiana, guys coming from Detroit and Donte coming from Milwaukee… It’s like a breath of fresh air when you have a change of decor.”
Before the break, the Kings lost in Brooklyn and then in Chicago, and they resume tonight against Denver, a very big piece. A formation which remains on five victories in six matches. For Sacramento, there is no more time to lose since the team is still in contention for a place in the “play-in”. For the moment, Portland has three victories in advance but the Blazers have just lost Jusuf Nurkic.
” The fact that we’re able to get to know each other and see cohesion develop, I think that’s really huge“said De’Aaron Fox. ” Success isn’t always immediate with trades and signings and things like that, so it’s definitely something we’ll see later, but we’ve got the squad to make some noise before the season is over.”
