The Sacramento Kings were one of the original 17 organizations to first make up the NBA, and they have made their home in Sacramento since 1985. The Kings were a powerhouse team in the 40's and 50's, when they were known as the Cincinnati Royals, and they won their only NBA Championship in the 1950-1951 season. The Kings have had some great players over the years, including Oscar Robertson, Nate "Tiny" Archibald, and Jack Twyman, but they fell under the radar during the 80's and 90's.Today, the Kings are a team on the rise. In recent years, the Sacramento Kings have returned to prominence, and they are once again a major power in the Western Conference. Coach Rick Adelman has developed the team into a high-powered offense, and he has led the Kings to consecutive winning seasons since his coming in 1998. The offense is powered by forwards Chris Webber and Peja Stojakovic and point guard Bob Bibby, and their defense is shored up by veteran center Vlade Divac. Despite having the best record in the NBA during the 2001-2002 season, the Kings continue to come up short in the play-offs.
