Kings' Backup PG Crisis | Sacramento Kings News

The Sacramento Kings just drafted Darius Acuff Jr. with the 7th pick, but they’re in a bind: no backup point guard left after shipping off Schröder and Ellis and letting Westbrook’s deal expire. With Acuff a rookie needing time to develop, the Kings must act fast. Free agency is off the table due to luxury tax, forcing them to consider minimum-salary veterans like Gabe Vincent or Cole Anthony—or even re-signing Russell Westbrook, who thrived on a cheap deal. They’re also eyeing internal options like Flynn and Fultz, or maybe even bringing back Westbrook. The final call? Likely to wait until after Summer League to see who fits best.

A's Final Year in West Sacramento | Sacramento Kings News

The Oakland A’s are packing their final year in West Sacramento with marquee matchups against the Cubs, Mets, Red Sox, Giants, and Yankees — plus special games on Mother’s Day and Labor Day. They’re also hitting Las Vegas for six games ahead of their new Strip ballpark, which opens in 2028. But looming shadows include a potential lockout and canceled 2027 season if players and owners can’t agree on salary caps.

Athletics in Free Fall, But Hope Lingers | Sacramento Kings News

The Athletics are in freefall, reeling from a nine-game losing streak and 17 losses in their last 20 games, with a dismal 41-55 record heading into the second half. Once division leaders, they’re now staring down another playoff-less season, plagued by injuries and underperforming players — especially their struggling pitching staff, which led to the firing of pitching coach Scott Emerson. Key stars like Luis Severino (shoulder) and Brent Rooker (out for the year) are sidelined, but hope is emerging with Nick Kurtz, Zack Gelof, and Jacob Wilson all nearing or already back from injury. With only five AL teams holding winning records and manager Mark Kotsay locked in through 2028, the A’s are banking on a turnaround — even if it’s coming late.

Kings Rebuilding With Hope | Sacramento Kings News

The Sacramento Kings are finally turning the corner after decades of playoff droughts, with DeMarcus Cousins crediting new leadership for a potential rebuild. Despite a brutal 22-win season and three straight misses from the postseason, the team’s front office is aggressively building for the future — drafting top talent like Darius Acuff Jr. and developing young stars such as Zach LaVine and Domantas Sabonis. Cousins, though critical of past missteps, now sees signs of real direction and believes the Kings are on the verge of their long-awaited resurgence.
