Sounding a warning to their rivals, Sacramento Kings coach Luke Walton on Thursday promised high quality basketball as they gear up to take on Indiana Pacers in NBA pre-season friendly games, being held in India for the first time.
The two NBA teams will clash in back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday.
"We love the group that we have and even though we are a new group, we know how to play basketball, we know how to coach basketball. It's about getting our team to come together," Walton, the former LA Lakers forward, said.
"No matter who is on the court, it's going to be very high level basketball because both teams know how important it is to us, and how important it is to the NBA."
"I'm happy to be back in the city of my forefathers. These games are a first step in a long journey. I fully expect these games will continue and hopefully multiple players will come out of India and play in the NBA. And hopefully, we will have more arenas to play these games," he said
