The Drive Guys, Kevin “Whitey” Gleason and Kyle Draper, play-by-play broadcaster for the Sacramento Kings, were joined by former Kings general manager, head coach, and broadcaster, local legend Jerry Reynolds.

The trio discussed Sacramento’s 2-2 start to the season that included disappointing breakdowns against Minnesota and Los Angeles before defeating Portland and Utah.

Jerry Reynolds made note of their new look offense with DeMar DeRozan, along with the ongoing conversation surrounding Kevin Huerter and Keon Ellis.

“To me, (Huerter) has always been a surprsingly good rebounder,” Jerry Reynolds said. “I think Coach (Mike) Brown has really done a nice job. He’s got everybody active.”

A common point of contention was Coach Brown’s decision to not play Ellis a single minute in their second game of the regular season. The former Kings’ manager/coach gave his opinion on what could have been taking place there and how the defensive specicalist has played his role since.

The full interview is available on the Sactown Sports 1140 YouTube page, using the link above.

When is the next Sacramento Kings game?

Sacramento will continue its four-game road trip on Friday night when they face Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena.

With a win, the Kings (2-2) would secure its third-straight win after starting the season in an 0-2 hole.
