Sacramento Kings fans worldwide are starting to question Coach Mike Brown’s decision to give fewer opportunities for Alexander Vezenkov to showcase his skills.
The latest cause for concern arose from the team’s home loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, with the 28-year-old Bulgarian forward participating in just 7 minutes and 34 seconds of the game.
Many passionate supporters note that the Kings’ three-point shooting was dismal, with only eight successful shots out of 33 attempts and successful shots beyond the arc are particularly crucial for a quicker comeback from a deficit in the score.
At one point, Sacramento’s deficit against Minnesota reached 22 points. Despite this, Coach Brown kept Alexander Vezenkov on the bench, even though fans are well aware of the Bulgarian’s impressive three-point shooting abilities.
Furthermore, on social media, fans express dissatisfaction with Coach Brown’s choice of starting Harrison Barnes, who, despite receiving significant playing time, is delivering subpar performances. Sacramento Kings enthusiasts are urging the coach to consider giving Vezenkov a chance as a starter instead of the 31-year-old American, pointing out that in most games, the Bulgarian reserve has comparable, if not superior, statistics to Barnes.
