Their roster hasn’t changed but the Sacramento Kings have looked very different lately.
As pointed out by Legion Hoops on X, the Kings are now 9-1 in their last 10 games.
The Kings have transformed and they once again feel like a team that could storm into the playoffs.

When Sacramento fired former coach Mike Brown, some people were concerned they made the wrong move.
But then Doug Christie took over and he unlocked something in the team that was buried deep down inside all along.
Their last ten games have featured wins over the Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, and Boston Celtics.
They have played against some of the best teams in the league and have walked away with victories.
They are still in a tough spot, claiming the ninth seed in the West with a 22-20 record.
However, if they keep playing like this, there is every reason to believe they will climb even higher and reach the playoffs again.
Of course, it’s important to remember that the Kings could commit to a trade before the upcoming deadline too.
That could improve their chances even more.
The Kings have dug a deep hole but they are climbing out of it with each win.
Christie is clearly a great person to lead this team, and he is pushing them in the right direction.
They will face the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday and then start a six-game road trip featuring the Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder, and more.
What will their record look like after that?
