Richaun Diante Holmes (age 26), on July 16, 2019, signed a two-year contract, worth $10 million, with the Sacramento Kings. Holmes was not able to play for 61 days, as the Kings power forward was sidelined for almost two months with a shoulder injury. In two games since returning, Holmes hasn’t missed a step – displaying the tenacity and prowess Kings fans have become accustomed to this season.
Holmes is considered a fan favorite, and as a result, was the subject of M-V-P chants earlier in the season.
“It was amazing, it’s moments like that I don’t take for granted. The love Sacramento fans have shown me since I got there has been unreal.”
