Kings release 2022-23 City Edition jerseys with nod to Sac's fight

Share

For the first time in franchise history, the Kings will take the court primarily wearing gray.

Sacramento unveiled its fourth jersey for the 2022-23 NBA season on Monday -- the City Edition -- which features the color gray, inspired by the Golden 1 Center, and purple trim.

For many years, the Kings franchise was often involved in relocation rumors, from Las Vegas to Seattle to Anaheim. But in 2013, NBA owners voted against the relocation of the team 22-8, and Golden 1 Center was opened three years later.

"This year, the Sacramento Kings City Edition uniform pays homage to fans who rallied and refused to back down with a passion and connection to their team that is unmatched in the NBA," the team website states.

The bottom of the jersey features a famous quote by former NBA commissioner David Stern: "We're going to keep this team in Sacramento."

The Kings (4-6) will debut the new City Edition threads Sunday when they host the Golden State Warriors (4-7) at Golden 1 Center.
