The Kings earned a 131-110 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on the road Monday night. The Sacramento Bee's Jason Anderson wrote the team "received word of the shooting immediately after leaving the court."
Interim head coach Alvin Gentry said the shooting is "almost impossible to comprehend."
"We just want the families and everyone to know that we’ll be praying for them for the rest of the night and the rest of the year, and we’ll keep them in our prayers," he told reporters. "It’s just such a tragic thing, especially when kids are losing their lives in a situation like that."
