The Sacramento Kings were blown out at home Thursday night in a preseason game at home against the Jazz (the two teams face each other to start the season, too).
I mean BLOWN OUT. Destroyed. Crushed. Taken out like guests at the Red Wedding. It was 39-10 after one quarter, and the Jazz went on to win by 39. It’s just preseason, but damn.
When the Kings’ official Twitter account was looking for highlights to show — like this nifty little drive, draw the contact, get the and-1 from De’Aaron Fox — they decided to censor the score.
They got creative with it as the night went on.
Well played.
Unfortunately, the Kings’ social media team may need to get very creative with this over the course of the season.
