As of October 26, 2025, the Kings have called Sacramento home for 40 years. That's a big deal for the franchise, one that deserves to be celebrated. The Sacramento Bee has done exactly that, naming the members of the All-Sacramento Kings Team as a way of looking back at history.

The Sacramento Kings started their existence on the other side of the country in Rochester, New York, in 1923 as the Rochester Seagrams. That name came from a sponsorship deal with Seagrams liquor company, though they would go through several name changes while in the city.
