Kent Bazemore is happy to be back in Sacramento.

The veteran forward sat down with Cattles & Ramie this week to explain his decision to return to the Kings, discuss Mike Brown’s coaching style, dissect the Fox-Sabonis duo, and much more.

Bazemore, 33, is back for his second tour of duty with Sacramento after being acquired in a midseason trade with the Atlanta Hawks during the 2019-20 season. The 6’4 veteran holds career averages of 8.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.0 steals per game on 35 percent shooting from beyond the arc.

Topics Discussed:

  • Bazemore shares why he decided to return to the Kings and talks about the organization’s growth
  • Does Bazemore notice a change in culture with this group of players?
  • What kind of coach is Mike Brown?
  • What is the ceiling for the tandem of De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis
  • Is this roster capable of holding its own on the defensive end?
