Move To Anaheim Becoming More Likely For Kings

It appears as though the Kings are moving closer to Anaheim.

Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson conceded that it is "more likely they're going to be in Anaheim."

Johnson used the word "extremely" when asked about the likelihood of the Kings becoming the third NBA team in Southern California, before stopping in mid-sentence.

"I don't think Sacramento can influence the outcome of their decision," he said.

As the inability to secure a deal to replace the aging Sacramento arena dragged on, Joe and Gavin Maloof zeroed in on Anaheim as their top choice.

The Kings have received an extension from the NBA to make a decision on their relocation.
