As the NBA season rolls back into Sacramento, the excitement is at an all-time high! Emcee Scott Freshour and the ever-energetic mascot Slamson took to KCRA 3 to hype up fans for what’s sure to be an electrifying season. They’ve got big plans, including the introduction of Kings Countdown, giving that all-important college game day vibe right in DOCO Plaza. If you weren’t excited before, you should be now—can I get a light the beam?
Freshour certainly isn’t shy about expressing his confidence in the Kings’ roster. He’s calling out critics who gave the team a mere 7% chance of making the playoffs. Those critics clearly haven’t seen how hard these veterans are stepping up to mentor the younger players! With some Hall of Famers in the mix, Freshour believes the team has what it takes to surprise, so maybe it’s time to wake up and smell the basketball!
As for the schedule, five Kings games will be hitting our screens, including their fiery home opener against the Utah Jazz. It’s time to gather your friends, wear your favorite jerseys, and get ready for some thrilling moments. Basketball season is upon us, and if you’re not on the Kings’ bandwagon yet, what are you waiting for? Who’s your prediction for breakout player this year?
