The Sacramento Kings will play the Golden State Warriors at Key Arena in Seattle in Friday. It’ll be a strange scene for several reasons. Kevin Durant, now with the Warriors, played his rookie season for the Seattle Super Sonics before they were relocated to Oklahoma City. And of course the Kings nearly relocated to Seattle before Vivek Ranadivé and his ownership group saved the Kings and kept them in Sacramento.
It’s strange to realize that we still aren’t that far removed from Here We Stay, whales, “You got Burkle?”, First and Goal, city council meetings, and developers.
