Walker also passed along a video of Temple taking the stage alongside Barnes, a former King: 

Temple has been vocal in his support of protestors who have blocked the entrances at Golden 1 Center over the last 10 days in protest of Clark's death. The unarmed 22-year-old was shot and killed in his grandmother's backyard by Sacramento police, who believed him to be carrying a gun. 

"If I didn't have a job to do, I'd probably be out there with them, peacefully protesting because what's going on has to stop, it has to stop," Temple said March 23, according to the Sacramento Bee's Jason Jones

"I think the protest did what it was supposed to do," he added of the demonstration before the Kings played the Hawks on March 22, per Jones. "It brought light to what's going on; I think that's what protests are for. And after that something has to change. Us not playing a basketball game isn't going to change that police ... unfortunately view black and brown men as a threat when they certainly are not."

The Kings, who will host the Warriors on Saturday night, have increased their security in advance of the Pacific Division tilt. 

"Golden 1 Center safety and security officials continue to work with the Sacramento Police Department on security measures for the game on Saturday night to ensure the safety of guests," the Kings said in a statement provided to Bleacher Report. "The plaza will close in the early afternoon, and only re-open to ticketed guests to ensure safe entry into the arena. Ticket checks will continue on the perimeter of the plaza and an increased security presence will be on-site to assist ticketed guests. To expedite entry, guests are encouraged to arrive early and have their ticket ready to show staff."
