Sacramento Kings TV play-by-play broadcaster Mark Jones joined Deuce & Mo for their inaugural show to talk about the atmosphere changing in Sacramento, De’Aaron Fox’s national perception and more.
Topics discussed include:
- Why the matchup against the Grizzlies is a real litmus test for the Kings
- How De’Aaron Fox has positively responded to Coach Mike Brown this season
- What the Sacramento Kings’ defense can to limit the Grizzlies
- Mark Jones expects a second-half-of-the-season surge by the Kings’ defense because “Mike [Brown] is too good a defensive coach and Jordy [Fernandez] does a fantastic job at that end of the floor.”
- How the fan energy and passion has been phenomenal so far this season
- “If you asked me to rank the top three [fanbases], I’d give us the top two on the podium and you can argue over third place.”
- His colleagues at ESPN are asking what’s going on in Sacramento
- What Domantas Sabonis does better than Nikola Jokić
- De’Aaron Fox has always been an elite point guard, but his game is getting noticed because the team is winning.
