Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis spoke to the media following his appearance in Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Sabonis, who was making his third All-Star appearance, played against his teammate De’Aaron Fox as the two were split up during the pregame draft process.

“It’s great. It’s always great to have another teammate there to represent the team, the city, everything,” Sabonis said of playing in the All-Star Game with his teammate. “All of Sacramento was probably watching. The fans that come and support us every night, they’re excited. I saw a lot of fans over this weekend that traveled to see us. I feel like it means a lot to the city.”
