The Kings are staying in Sacramento for another 30 years. If you followed his playing career at all, you know Mayor KJ is an excellent finisher.

Joe and Gavin Maloof get the updated arena they wanted, the city of Sacramento gets financial concessions from the owners and the arena operator, and Power Balance, manufacturers of discredited magical bracelets, are probably priced out of the naming rights for this new building.

This was the best possible solution. No one really wanted to see a third NBA team in Southern California, Sacramento has some of the most passionate fans in the league, and if the only other professional sports team left, Sacramento residents would finally have to figure out what a “Rivercat” is. In addition, Gavin Maloof’s love of oversized turkey legs is much more manageable when he only needs to buy tickets to the state fair, rather than a season pass to Disneyland.

Better luck next time, AnaheimRoyalty.com
