Kings Set Record with 15th Straight Loss

Sacramento Kings extended their franchise-record losing streak to 15 games with a 131-94 defeat to the Orlando Magic, dropping their record to 12-45.

The Kings broke the previous franchise record held by two different streaks from their Cincinnati Royals days. Their last win came on January 16 against Washington Wizards, with the team now missing All-Star Domantas Sabonis (season-ending knee surgery) and leading scorer Zach LaVine (hand surgery).

Sacramento will attempt to end the streak against Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday before facing the Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, and Dallas Mavericks in their next three games. Rookie Maxime Reynaud posted 17 points and 14 rebounds in Sabonis' absence.
