1999–2000 Sacramento Kings season

The 1999–2000 NBA season was the Kings' 51st season in the National Basketball Association, and 15th season in Sacramento.[1] During the off-season, the Kings acquired Nick Anderson from the Orlando Magic,[2] and signed free agents Tony Delk, Darrick Martin and re-signed Tyrone Corbin.[3] For the season opener, the Kings traveled to Tokyo, Japan to play their first two games against the Minnesota Timberwolves.[4] Coming off a winning record in a strike-shortened season was much expected of the Kings, who got off to a fast start winning nine of their first ten games, which included an 8-game winning streak. The team held a 30–18 record at the All-Star break.[5] However, they played below .500 for the remainder of the season losing seven of their final eight games, finishing fifth in the Pacific Division with a 44–38 record.[6]
