Editor's Note: A correction has been made to one of the quotes in this story after it was published.   Kings past and present were reunited on a rainy Saturday afternoon at Power Balance Pavilion, the latest in a series of events showing appreciation for potential and current season ticket holders. An estimated 6,000 fans filed in to the dimly-lit arena and stood in line for their complimentary barbeque lunch and hours of entertainment that would follow, a bigger showing than some games last season. Former NBA all-star Mitch Richmond, lock-down defender Doug Christie, Brad Miller and fan-favorite Bobby Jackson all made appearances, as well as current players Tyreke Evans and Donte Gre

 Celebrity athletes are just like you and I. Well, maybe not just like you and I, but similar. They are like richer, better-dressed, more-fit versions of us (Or, in Scot Pollard's case, just richer). The similarities were on display at the second annual Athletes vs. Cancer golf tournament at the Woodcreek Golf Club, hosted by Matt Barnes on Saturday. Barnes founded the AVC to honor his mother, who passed away from cancer in 2007. Their mission is to "support research, create awareness, provide screening opportunities and deliver support to cancer patients." The tournament featured many athletes with local ties, among them former Kings Chris Webber, Scot Pollard, Bobby Jackson, Doug Chri

The Sacramento Kings welcomed six college seniors hoping to make the jump into the NBA this summer. Jerome Randle from UC Berkeley (Cal), Houston's Aubrey Coleman, Kansas State's Denis Clemente, South Carolina's Devan Downey, Tasmin Mitchell from LSU and Michighan State's Raymar Morgan are preparing for the 2010 NBA Draft, competing for a spot on one of the league's 30 team rosters. Six other players, including the Kings' Jason Thompson's brother and Rider product Ryan and Seattle University's Charles Garcia, dropped by the practice facility on Tuesday. Out of the six players who participated in today's workout, Randle, who played about 80 miles away from Sacramento, is the only player

The Sacramento Kings trailed by a score of 79-46 points to the Chicago Bulls in the third quarter, Monday night. Kings fans were most likely turning off their TVs and radios expecting the first blowout of the year. A sold out United Center was celebrating what was supposed to be a surefire Bulls win. The ending was the exact opposite. The Kings mounted an incredible 58-19 run in the final 21 minutes as the team completed a seemingly impossible comeback, defeating the Bulls 102-98. It was the biggest second-half comeback in NBA history and the second biggest comeback overall. The Utah Jazz had a 36-point comeback against the Denver Nuggets on Nov. 27, 1996. Kings star rookie Tyreke Ev

Last Saturday, as a friend and I wandered around the enormous shopping center in Roseville called "The Fountains," we came across a familiar face. It was Brad Miller of the Sacramento Kings. I wanted to say hello, but he was with his wife and daughter so I decided to leave him to his own business. This encounter, brief as it was, caused me to reflect on Sacramento's forgotten franchise. I have lived in Sacramento for 20 years and for as long as I can remember this team has been the celebrated identity of our city. People loved this team. I've even seen tattoos bearing the Kings emblem on the skin of die-hard fans.  Nowadays, you might be hard pressed to see someone in town wearing a King
