Matsui Statement on Kings Remaining in Sacramento for Another Year

Statement

Today, following the announcement that the Sacramento Kings will remain in Sacramento for at least one more season, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-Sacramento) released the following statement:

"Today's announcement shows what the Sacramento community is capable of when it works together. Over the past twenty-five years, the Kings have built a very loyal fan base throughout our region, and the dedication and support that their fans and business community have shown over the past few months has been nothing short of incredible.

"I look forward to continuing to work with Mayor Kevin Johnson and other local leaders to keep the Kings here for the long-term. Sacramento is a great city, and I am confident that over the next few months elected officials, the business community, and local residents will keep working together."
