The new era of Sacramento Kings basketball is officially underway. The team formally introduced new general manager Monte McNair during a press conference on Wednesday. The Princeton grad spent the last 13 seasons as part of the Houston Rockets front office.

1) Patience
McNair alluded to “developing winning habits” several times during the press conference. That doesn’t happen overnight. The Kings have some young, talented pieces on the roster for him to build around, but don’t expect any big moves right off the bat.
