What happened: The Sacramento Kings wrapped another season of Tip-Off Tastes, the team's restaurant program presented by Delta Dental. The franchise hosted participating restaurants for an appreciation event featuring custom framed jerseys and small business recognition.

Why it matters: The initiative is part of the Kings' broader community and local-business engagement efforts, deepening ties between the franchise and Sacramento's restaurant scene. Programs like this build the off-court brand and fan goodwill that carry a market between basketball seasons.

What to watch: Watch for the Kings to announce the next slate of community and small-business activations heading into the 2025-26 calendar.
