One King received an ovation from the fans at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Monday night.
That was Kosta Koufos. When the basketball became stuck in the cameras and equipment behind the backboard in the first half, it was the 7-footer who used his height to his advantage and freed the ball with a mop handle.
It was the simple thing to do, and it was the right thing to do.
That's what Koufos does for the Kings. He does his job, focuses on the details and doesn't complain – and it's why he's respected by his teammates.
