Mike Brown Brings Computer To Show Missed Calls After Game

The Sacramento Kings’ coach, Mike Brown, was already going to get fined for getting ejected in Sunday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, but now expect the fines to grow bigger.

Why will the fines grow bigger? He decided to bring a computer to the postgame press conference to air his frustrations through a detailed analysis of all the calls the refs missed.

Not only did he go to great lengths with examples shown on his laptop, but he also talked about some more issues after putting away the computer.

The source of anger the coaches and players felt came from a head-scratching first half. Milwaukee had 19 free-throw opportunities compared to the five Sacramento was awarded; they thought it was one-sided.

Malik Monk knew about Brown’s comments but didn’t want to get fined for what he said.

“I don’t want to get fined. But they miss a lot of calls with us. That’s all I’m going to say,” said Monk.

De'Aaron Fox Told By Kings About Opening Trade Talks

According to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, the Sacramento Kings were the ones who brought up opening trade talks surrounding De’Aaron Fox. Fox did not have any intentions of requesting a trade.

With the option of being traded on the table now, Fox would have preferred to handle this matter in the offseason. The main reason is that more teams would have been interested in the talented guard.

Right now, teams don’t have as many assets to trade for him as they would in the offseason.

Rumors were circulating that Fox opted not to extend with Sacramento because he was unhappy or wanted to see if they could succeed. Neither was the prevailing case, as he declined the contract to bet on himself to make an All-NBA team to become supermax eligible.

The supermax contract would have guaranteed a lasting relationship with the Kings, as that was the superstar’s intention. However, he is no longer interested in remaining with the team after they decided to move on from him.

Kings Add De'Aaron Fox To Trade Block Ahead Of Deadline

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Sacramento Kings have made the mind-blowing move to put De’Andre Fox up on the trade block to listen to offers before the trade deadline.

While several teams are knocking on their door, Fox already has a team in mind. Reportedly, he’s had a team in mind for a while ahead of his free agency in 2026.

Before the start of the season, the 27-year-old declined a three-year, $165 million extension he wanted to “win.”

Fox is already ruling out teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and wanting teams like the San Antonio Spurs. Fans have fantasized about him and Victor Wembanyama for the longest time.

The superstar averages 25.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 6.2 assists in 37.2 minutes. He’s played 43 games this season.
