Domantas Sabonis frustrated to drop Kings’ season opener to Trail Blazers

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis gives his thoughts on Wednesday’s 115-108 loss to the Trail Blazers to open the season, frustrated by how he played individually, the way his team were unable to keep themselves from fouling and how different Portland played compared to last week's preseason matchup.

as a blazer fan. i thought we were gonna lose, but i salute my team for fighting until the end. our defence looked way better then it used to. Kings fans should not feel bad because yall have improved everywhere and can compete and against many teams in the league. Keegan wasn`t playing and fox looks fucking scary. Gg

Its good we face adversity early in the season considering we went 4-0 and didn't ever lose cause we really didn't play bad besides turnovers but the refs really screwed us tbh.

sabonis played bad but holy fuck those refs were actually terrible

I love going to King's games, even as a Lakers fan and the refs were pretty bad. Doesn't excuse the missed free throws and turnovers but def played a part in breaking the rhythm the Kings were hitting at times. Sabonis is better than what he showed. You guys have one of the hardest schedules to start the season, so don't panic Kings fans!!

Looks like some casual Kings fans are already starting to hate on Sabonis, because he isn´t the ball dominant scorer other star players are. Seems like it will be an interesting season.^^

I think it was just one of those nights for Sabonis. I think he will bounce back against the Clippers.

He should be playing in Portland like his dad.

The team played great. He played LIKE SHIT! Turning over the ball so many fucking times trying to force his way to the rim when nothing is there like wtf. Completely killed the momentum with bad turnovers. You guys had great ball movement last night. Except when the ball went to you. Sometimes you would find the open man but other times it’s a turnover. All while acting pissed about it… stop being mad and move the ball. Run you pick and roll I don’t see strong post movs so why you trying to act like Hakeem? Pick and roll and move the ball. Good defense tho lol
