The Sacramento Kings acquired Domantas Sabonis from the Indiana Pacers at the trade deadline of the 2021-22 season, and the All-Star big man has been nothing short of greatness on his new team.
Since arriving in Sacramento, Sabonis has averaged 19.2 points, 12.9 rebounds, and 7.6 assists per game with one All-Star appearance, two All-NBA Third Team honors, and two top-ten NBA MVP finishes.
Sabonis recently spoke with HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto , as Sacramento’s star big man opened up about if he sees himself retiring with the Kings:
Yeah, of course. They’ve only been nice. It’s been amazing. The fans have been awesome. As a player, you always want to build a legacy somewhere, and you can’t do it if you’re not in one place and doing great things for that team. Obviously, it depends on my performance and the team’s performance, but that definitely would really be a cool thing. Domantas Sabonis, Sacramento Kings
Ideally, the Kings would be able to retain Sabonis and his star teammate De’Aaron Fox for the rest of their careers, but that is unlikely in the current state of the NBA…
