This mean’s not only taking care of Sabonis but also giving him the benefit of the doubt, understanding he has room to improve his postseason play. The Kings aren’t a free-agent destination, they need to take care of the players they have. Sabonis did not perform well in the playoffs and renegotiating and extending might seem risky. However, there is some potential downside here. Bad Timing is a vintage store in the heart of Crosstown that specializes in t-shirts, memorabilia and other relics of past-culture. The teams around them in the West will continue to get better and as a franchise, the Kings need to stay agile if they want to remain out of their previous despair. This was a critical step for Sacramento in both the immediate future and looking down the road. He wanted to leave some room for the Kings to build around him and fellow All-NBA player, De’Aaron Fox this offseason.

What’s also notable is Sabonis didn’t take the full max here. The trade proved to be a rare occurrence of being beneficial for both sides. His play justified the deal it took to acquire him, which sent out highly talented guard Tyrese Haliburton.

The Timberwolves defeated the Kings 117-110. It's easyand, to an extent, fairto chalk the offensive slump up to the Wes Matthews-shaped hole in the Blazers backcourt and the buzzsaw that is the Grizzlies perimeter defense. It’s a real shame.MINNEAPOLIS, MN – JANUARY 28: Domantas Sabonis #10 holds back De’Aaron Fox #5 of the Sacramento Kings as he reacts to a foul call in the fourth quarter of the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center on Januin Minneapolis, Minnesota. The situation has absolutely nothing to do with Judge, but will undoubtedly have baseball fans keeping an eye on the Yankees for unsavory acts. In a routine check from the umpires prior to the bottom of the fourth inning, Germán was seen with a brown substance on his hand and hip. Germán, who has a history of using illegal substances following Major League Baseball’s ban on them in June 2021, was ejected from his start against the Blue Jays on Tuesday at Rogers Centre. The Yankees just needed to keep their noses clean in the follow up game at Rogers Centre. Judge is a stud, so did he really need help catching on to the fact that he was going to get a flat and slow slider over the plate? No. It was the seventh-consecutive slider that Jackson threw, which eventually led to cooler heads prevailing about the situation. The 2022 American League MVP glanced toward the Yankees’ dugout on more than one occasion, with one such instance immediately leading to a 462-foot home run to center field off an 83 mph slider from right-handed reliever Jay Jackson. The Yankees found themselves in a little bit of hot water Tuesday, as star outfielder Aaron Judge was accused of cheating in their matchup with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night. There’s having no foresight, and then there’s doing what New York Yankees pitcher Domingo Germán did Tuesday night.
