Sacramento: The Kings have been on a bit of a rollercoaster lately. After a rough patch that saw them lose a bunch of games, they finally turned things around. They recently snagged a thrilling 138-133 win against the Memphis Grizzlies, lighting up the city’s victory beam for the third game in a row.
Doug Christie, stepping in as interim coach, has made a noticeable impact. Since taking over, he’s led the team to a 3-1 record. Malik Monk, one of the Kings’ guards, shared his thoughts on how Christie’s approach has made a difference. He mentioned that Christie has simplified things, allowing the players to focus more on the game rather than overthinking it.
Before this winning streak, the Kings were struggling with a 13-19 record, especially at home where they had a disappointing 6-12. They had a tough time during a homestand, losing five straight games. This led to the firing of Mike Brown and Christie stepping up to lead the team.
Now, the Kings are looking ahead to their next game against the Golden State Warriors. They’re hoping to keep the momentum going and make it four wins in a row. Keeping things simple seems to be the key as they aim to climb the Western Conference standings.
