Doug Christie Signals 'Bumpy' Changes for Kings in Terse Pregame Address

No roster moves are confirmed despite growing speculation about a potential rebuild.

Overview

  • Christie delivered a brief, prepared statement, calling out "haters" and "fakers," then exited after pounding the table and taking no questions.
  • He said the organization is "aligned" and warned that change is coming with a "bumpy" path as the team works to "get it right."
  • Sacramento lost 122-108 to the Nuggets later that night, dropping to 3-8 and adding pressure to an already shaky start.
  • Media reports have linked the Kings to a possible full reset with high-profile names surfacing in speculation, but no trades have been announced.
  • Christie is in his first full season after an interim stint following Mike Brown's firing, a backdrop that gives his message added weight.
