Ridiculous numbers, well done.

61 rebounds in 3 games is insane. Well-deserved, he's playing incredible basketball

Ridiculous numbers, well done.

Interesting how close Domas' numbers are to his counterpart Garland in scoring and assists. Rebounds, of course, weren't listed for Garland because..well...he had 4. Total. Domas' average OFFENSIVE rebounds per game over the week was 5.3. And he shot more than 80 points better. And he shot 340 points better from three (on much lower volume to be sure).

And he had 57 more rebounds. Damn.

And the national media doesn’t even know he is alive.

Including the NBA when they pumped Jaylen Brown's 28 pts, 1 rebound performance in a loss over Sabonis' 23/28. Congrats to Sabonis, well deserved award!

 

[Angelo127]

Holy sh*t, those are ridiculous numbers

 

[ESP47]

He's been a big reason why we've been able to win some games lately despite shooting much worse from 3. Those rebounds are getting us extra shots over the competition.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Averaging 20-20-7 for a whole week is absurd. This man needs to be a King until he can no longer play.

 

[gunks]

Monster.

Last season I was spoiled with the triple doubles, this year whenever he grabs a mere 15 rebounds or less, I find myself wondering if he was playing sick or something.

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

He deserves the accolade solely based on his numbers from the W in Beantown (I mean...Beamtown ).

 

[Telemachus]

I cracked up during the Boston game when their announcers asked if he had magnets in his hands or something.

To be fair, the national media knows him as the scrub that the Kings got fleeced for in trading the omnipotent Haliburton.

 

[AaronPDX]

And this is the same guy some folks have suggested trading.

 

[captain bill]

They say you need a generational star to win a chip, maybe we have ours right here

Could be. I believe he is more important to the Kings than De'Aaron Fox, who brings his own brand of brillance to the game.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Sabonis has improved every weakness he had since we traded for him and he plays hard every game love that guy

 

[Jdbraver137]

He is the heart of this team

 

[NewArena]

What he's doing is just unreal. Man i wish Monk could be good to go tomorrow, i think we really need that two-man game he has with Sabonis against Milwaukee.

Fortunately we have enough guard defenders for Dame, Milwaukee will be down Middleton we might have a bench advantage

I didn't know Monk is going to be out. That's a bummer but also we're getting MORE Keon and Carter! Dame is gonna have to work for his points tomorrow!

Man, it's almost like having some good guard depth matters!

leading the league in rebounding for the third year in a row while shooting 46% from 3 on increased volume. Playing under Jokic’s shadow has resulted in him being severely under appreciated but I’d hope a deep playoff run would start to fix that

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

(Maybe Not So) Hot Take: It will be easier to build a legitimate championship contending team around Domas than it has been (and still would be) to build one around Fox. Not saying that it would be impossible to build one around Fox. I just think that, once you find yourself a solid big man, finding complimentary pieces to place around him is much easier than if you find yourself a solid small man and try to do the same thing.

 

[thingfish]

Well deserved! Absolute stud week from the big man.

Did I miss something where we can't build around both? What in the heck is with the Fox trade talk?

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

Absolutely blows my mind that our of the blue he decided to make himself one of the best big man three point shooters in the league.

 

[Kingster]

He certainly deserves it. He comes to play *every* *single* *game.* My favorite Kings' player of all time.

Is Monk hurt or something?
