The Kings' victory beam has been a big winner of the 2022-23 NBA season, and now it's listed as a place of worship on Google Maps.
Kings owner Vivek Ranadivé said last month on"The Run" that he always envisioned Golden 1 Center as a place where anyone and everyone could come together.
"So really, this is the communal fireplace. This is where people gather," Ranadivé said."I've always had this notion that being the new town square, we had to always make it a spectacle. It had to be a place where people could come, they could see other people, they could be seen, they could celebrate, they could worship.
"This is a city that's been built on basketball, so it's a celebration of basketball. But really, it's a celebration of life. It's a celebration of community. It's a celebration of coming together for a common cause." The beam has been a huge hit since being introduced this season -- and it's not just in Sactown. in the fourth quarter of the Kings' blowout win over the Los Angeles Clippers over the weekend.
The Kings have been able to light that beam plenty of times so far this season but want to light it a whole lot more and hopefully end their NBA-record 16-year playoff drought. Maybe then, after a playoff atmosphere returns to Sacramento, there will be a lot more to worship in the 916.
