KJ

"Today is a significant day for our community because it is the first day that Sacramento Kings are officially for sale."

"I'm going to make every effort to identify a potential buyer to ensure the Kings remain in Sacramento"

"We've always said we're in control of our destiny and feel this gives us the opportunity to do so"

We've been here before with Anaheim, Va Beach, and now Seattle. Sacramento has had their back against the wall before. This is no different.
NBA has "100% market share" in Sacramento.

"We've heard from a number of people, if the team was for sale they would be interested in buying."
"We're going to do our part to be competitive" in regards to offers.

The team is for sale, we will do our part to be competitive in bidding process. From our standpoint, it's cheaper to stay in Sacramento.

There are a lot of advantages to keeping this team in Sacramento. I know the deadline is 3/1.

You best believe I knew 3/1 was looming. We still have an arena deal. We won't be caught flat footed. We've been in contact with many folks.

"I called David Stern an hour or two ago. I have not talked to David Stern."

"600-1000 full-time and part-time jobs would be lost if the Kings leave Sacramento."

"(Burkle) and I have consistent conversations. We've always stayed in constant contact."

KJ says he cannot identify potential buyers but there have been more than one and that city will "fight like crazy" and talks will intensify

"I think (potential owners) will determine the appropriate time to identify themselves."” Any ownership group has to keep team here, new arena must be built, must have a local presence.
that this is a significant day, that Sacramento is a proven market, and that they'd like to keep it that way.

Vista in diretta.
