The Sacramento Kings have parted ways with general manager Monte McNair following a disappointing end to the season. In five seasons, McNair remarkably turned the franchise around, culminating in an NBA executive of the year award in 2023 as the Kings achieved a winning season and playoff qualification for the first time in 16 years. The team's performance has notably improved, breaking a long streak of poor results. McNair's exit follows that of assistant GM Wes Wilcox, showcasing changes in the team's leadership structure.
McNair spent five seasons running the Kings, winning NBA executive of the year in 2023 when Sacramento went 48-34 and snapped a record 16-year drought to make the playoffs.
The Kings have won 40 or more games in three straight seasons under McNair's leadership, a significant turnaround since their struggles prior.
