NBA professional basketball team season
The 1985–86 NBA season was the Kings' 37th season in the NBA and first in Sacramento following its relocation from Kansas City .[1] The Kings played their home games at the original ARCO Arena , and finished the season with a record of 37 wins and 45 losses, placing them fifth in the Midwest Division and seventh in the Western Conference . They made the playoffs, but were quickly eliminated in the first round in three straight games by the eventual Western Conference champion Houston Rockets .
On April 16, 1985, the NBA board of governors voted 22–0 for the Kings to be relocated to Sacramento.[2] They moved into the first ARCO Arena, their temporary home for three seasons.
The team performed preseason workouts at Yuba College .[3]
Sacramento did not start the season well, having a 9–22 record on December 31, the worst in the Western Conference.[4]
