Kings and Blazers Honor Rick Adelman | Sacramento Kings News

The Sacramento Kings are honoring coaching legend Rick Adelman with a special black band jersey featuring his name, celebrating his 395 wins and eight straight playoff runs—plus his time as a player. Nearly two decades after he left, no one’s come close to his impact, with only one other coach leading the team to the postseason since. Meanwhile, Portland Trail Blazers, whom Adelman led to two NBA Finals and played over 200 games for, are paying tribute too—with a full tribute game against his son David Adelman’s Denver Nuggets on December 15th. The Kings haven’t picked a date yet, but with the Nuggets coming to town in March, expect a similar salute. It’s a powerful moment of respect for the architects who built these franchises.
