Listen to\u00a0The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross\u00a0from 6 \u2013 10 a.m. PST, Monday through Friday, on\u00a0Sactown Sports 1140.<\/a><\/p>\n

The nightmare continues for the Sacramento Kings.<\/p>\n

Aside from an offensive burst at the end of the first quarter that trimmed a 15-point deficit to three, Sacramento was pummeled by the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night. The Kings trailed by as many as 44 points en route to a 133-100 loss\u2013their fourth-straight, which also concluded a 1-4 homestand.<\/p>\n

Sacramento (3-9) kept pace with the 2017-18 Kings team for the worst 12-game start since the 1990-91 season, falling into a tie with Dallas for the 14th spot in the basement of the Western Conference standings.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s still early in the regular season\u2013really early\u2013but there aren\u2019t many signs of hope for Sacramento as they continue to aimlessly stumble to one of their worst starts during the franchise\u2019s history in California\u2019s capital city.<\/p>\n

Kings drop fourth-straight, end 1-4 homestand in embarrassing fashion<\/a><\/p>\n
