See how the Sacramento Kings community reacted when their team fell to the Golden State Warriors last night.

Not only was yesterday’s performance considered bad because the Kings lost, but also because some of the team’s young talent had bad nights individually. As a result of Sacramento’s horrid performance, many in the team’s fanbase took their thoughts and reactions to the game via social media.
With that being said, listed down below are some tweets that the A Royal Pain squad was able to gather up pertaining to the Kings’ loss last night to the Warriors.
Reactions From Social Media
Very noticeable difference when De'Aaron Fox isn't running the offense.

Justin Jackson absolutely needed this game

More people at these summer league games in Sac than at A’s games most nights. Not sure it’s even close

I was told there was an otherworldly second jump.
Justin Jackson is the only splash brother.

The fans are all over the refs for a questionable call. No one told this group that it’s just summer league.

Justin Jackson’s 20 and 5 ans Harry Giles being Harry Giles has made this night worth it.

(Also beer and a babysitter)
Right now Giles and Bagley are extremely dependent on guards. Need the ball in the right spots and be on the finishing end of plays. Right now there's only Frank on the court who does that for them. Miles and Freeman have been hot garbage on the perimeter

Final Thoughts
Overall, it was not a good game for the Kings, especially on the offensive end. The team overall scored just 54 points in 40 minutes of play and made only 27.5% of their shots from the floor and 15.4% from beyond the arc. But at least they made 75% of their free throws.
Not only did the team struggle to get points on the board, but guys like Harry Giles and Marvin Bagley III could not find any offensive rhythm as they combined for just 11 points for the night.
Hopefully, the Kings were just suffering a hiccup in their offensive game. They will have the chance to avenge themselves on Thursday when they face off against the Maimi Heat.
