SACRAMENTO, Calif. — After 17 years, the Sacramento Kings are in the NBA playoff, ending the longest playoff drought in NBA history.
The Kings faced and defeated the defending champion Warriors in the first round of the playoffs.
The Kings' historic offense helped catapult them to the No. 3 seed during the regular season. It was an offensive force pushed in part by candidate for clutch player of the year De'Aaron Fox and stellar performances by Domantas Sabonis. And fans are enjoying every moment of it.
