Sacramento Kings
Definition
The Sacramento Kings are a professional basketball franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), based in Sacramento, California. They compete in the Western Conference's Pacific Division and play home games at the Golden 1 Center.
Founded in 1923 as the Rochester Royals, the team has a storied history with one NBA championship (1951) but is often playfully dubbed the league's eternal optimists due to decades of playoff droughts.
