The Kings seemingly gave their unpopular new mascot an unceremonious sendoff during Saturday’s game against the Utah Jazz.

The new mascot was introduced as a "mischief" maker whose design was inspired by the team's past as the Cincinnati Royals.

The Sacramento Kings unveiled their new blue-and-red City Edition jerseys on Thursday, a uniform set that pays tribute to the franchise's 15-year run as the Cincinnati Royals from 1957 to '72. The team was blue and red—even in the early years in Sacramento—before rebranding to the current purple color scheme in 1994.
