Kings fall to Warriors, hit the road for pair of games in Houston



Fox 40’s Sean Cunningham, Brenden Nunes from the Kings Pulse Podcast and The Kings Beat’s James Ham join forces for coverage of the exciting Sacramento Kings.

Topics include the Kings’ loss to the Warriors, who will step up with De’Aaron Fox out, Pacific division packed with Hall of Fame players, Victor Wembanyama stars, Kings make a trade for a young big, as well as another edition of The Business of Basketball centered around whether losing Fox for a short stint can help motivate the rest of the team.

Thanks for joining us on this adventure! Big shoutout to Paul Jinkerson (@paulitition) for creating a new intro and outro for the podcast and to Brenden for creating our new overlay for the podcast.

    Daryl Morey was really high on Filip Petrusev. He shoots 59% on catch-and-shoot opportunities and loves cutting to the basket. He's not strong and is more of a finesse player, but the kid has skills that could fit seamlessly with the Kings. He's another high BB IQ player who fits Monte's mold of players he wants on his squad. He's a nice project for the Kings to work with.
    Second, I don't expect the Kings to shoot well when they are playing hard on the defensive end. Playing defense takes a toll on your legs and definitely shooting will take a dip. That should be expected.
    Last, although they lost to the Warriors, I was completely impressed with how the group responded without Fox. If they play this type of defense, it will pay dividends throughout the season. Duarte and Sasha will find their roles once they feel more comfortable in Brown's system. Sasha has to learn the NBA game and speed plus he's coming to a completely new culture and country (give him time), but you can definitely see that once he gets comfortable, he's going to be a weapon for the Kings.
