Sacramento Kings star Domantas Sabonis will host a youth basketball camp this summer in Rocklin.
The one-day Domantas Sabonis Basketball ProCamp is scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 25, at Hardwood Palace in Rocklin. The camp is open to children in grades 1 – 8, with an opportunity for participants to work directly with the three-time on techniques and performance.
Participants will take part in drills and games, and at the end of the camp, will receive a a team photo, a souvenir autograph, and a limited-edition camp t-shirt.
Attending the camp costs $199, and registration is now open.
It was a memorable 2023-24 season for Sabonis, who secured his second-straight All-NBA Third Team honor.
Over 82 games, Sabonis averaged 19.4 points, 13.7 rebounds (1st in NBA), and 8.2 assists (6th in NBA) per game on 59 percent shooting from the field. The 27-year-old led the league in double-doubles (77) and triple-doubles (26) and clinched his second-straight rebounding title.
Along with leading the league in rebounds, rebounds per game, double-doubles, and triple-doubles, Sabonis’ 673 assists (a career-high) placed him fourth in the NBA, only behind Tyrese Haliburton, Luka Doncic, and Jokic.
Sabonis also finished fourth in win shares (12.6), with only Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexader, and Giannis Antetokounmpo ahead of him.
Posting 19-13-8 is a rare feat for NBA players. Sabonis’ 2023-24 season made him just the second player in league history to post those numbers or better, joining Wilt Chamberlain (1967-68) as the only other person to do so.
Since being acquired by Sacramento in 2022, Sabonis has been a force for the Kings, averaging 19.2 points, 12.9 rebounds, and 7.6 assists over 176 games. Sabonis has already jumped into the top ten on the Sacramento era (1985-present) rebounding leaderboard, coming in at tenth with 2,278 rebounds.
