The Philadelphia 76ers are trending in the right direction, but they could have their hands full with Domantas Sabonis and the visiting Sacramento Kings when the teams square off Wednesday.

Christie spent countless hours with Sabonis over the past three years as his player development coach. Christie has watched Sabonis improve his 3-point shooting dramatically from 23.5% in his first season with the Kings to almost 48% this season while doubling his volume.

The Sacramento Kings' star center Domantas Sabonis is having an incredible season, and he is currently in elite company alongside the likes of Wilt Chamberlain.

Anytime your name appears alongside the legendary Wilt Chamberlain in the record book, it must be for a special reason. Domantas Sabonis had a wonderful performance in the Sacramento Kings game on Monday.

Three-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis, among the best bigs in the league for multiple seasons, has stepped up his game with a career-best campaign for the Kings so far in 2024-25.

Tracing Doug Christie’s path from Seattle high school star to Pepperdine, the NBA, TV, radio and interim coach of the Sacramento Kings.

The three time NBA all star was joined by his wife, Shashanna, and his children, Tiger and Eleven for the ceremony.

In Little Caesars Arena, Italian Simone Fontecchio recorded five points, two rebounds, and one block in just under 18 minutes as the Detroit Pistons lost, 111-100, to the Indiana Pacers. Swedish Bobi Klintman remained on a G League assignment.

Tyrese Maxey scored 30 points to lead the Philadelphia 76ers past the Sacramento Kings 117-104 on Wednesday night for their fourth straight victory.

“In this business, you have to put those emotions aside,” Fox said. “Obviously, everybody especially who were here during that long (postseason drought), and who was on this team when we made the playoffs, obviously that means a lot to everybody.

Sacramento lost, 117-104, at the Wells Fargo Center, against a 76ers team missing former MVP Joel Embiid and All-Star Paul George, and that was also playing on the back end of a back-to-back.

The clock is ticking on Sacramento. Would Houston or Orlando make a play for the point guard? Or will the Spurs form a dynamic duo?
