Sacramento Kings
The new primary logo closely resembles the team’s original logo created back when the franchise moved from Kansas City to Sacramento in 1985. A wordmark “KINGS” in purple in between a purple crown and a silver basketball. In addition a wordmark “SACRAMENTO” in white above the basketball.
Kings Alternate Logo
The Sacramento Kings have had a long and storied history in the NBA, dating back to their establishment in 1945. Throughout this time, they’ve gone through several different iterations of logos and alternate logos. The first logo featured an elephant wearing a crown with “Sacramento Kings” written beneath it. This logo was used until 1986 when it was replaced by the popular “purple reign” era logo featuring two lions holding up a basketball hoop with “Kings” written above them. This logo lasted all the way until 2016 when it underwent yet another redesign that saw its colors changed from purple and gold to black, white, silver, and blue as well as introducing new elements such as wings on either side of the lion heads representing strength and power while also incorporating modern design trends into its look.
In addition to these primary designs over time there have been numerous alternate versions created for special occasions or events such as throwback nights or promotional campaigns like last year's "We Are All One" campaign which featured an updated version of their classic 90s-era lion head design with rainbow colors replacing traditional royal hues - symbolizing unity amongst fans regardless of race or gender identity – alongside other unique renditions including one inspired by California state flag that incorporates both golden bears into its composition along with stars surrounding each letter in 'KINGS' text at center stage; thus creating something truly eye-catching for all those who see it!
Overall throughout Sacramento King's history, we can see how much thought went into every single iteration of their various logos & alternates; each possessing distinct characteristics reflective upon certain aspects related directly back towards the team itself - whether celebrating city pride (California flag) or rallying community togetherness (rainbow). As years pass onward so too will these designs continue to evolve but no matter what happens always remember: Go, KINGS!
