As the Sacramento Kings ride a six-game winning streak, fans are noticing a difference with this team that they haven’t seen in years past.

Fox40’s Sean Cunningham joined Cattles and Ramie on Monday afternoon to discuss the team’s recent winning streak, how De’Aaron Fox has improved, and how the team can still make improvements.

Topics discussed include:

  • Why it is great to see the Sacramento Kings relevant again
  • Kings fans are great because of the organic excitement over a Band-Aid or a purple laser beam
  • The last time the team had an extended winning streak, they followed it with a 9-game losing streak. So while the fans are excited, there’s cautious optimism among fans
  • How the combination of Mike Brown and Domantas Sabonis has helped De’Aaron Fox reach another level in his game
  • What the team and organization has done to change the culture and become unselfish
  • Why Fox looks more confident this year compared to years past
