Domantas Sabonis is a Lithuanian-American center, who plays for the Sacramento Kings in the NBA. The roots of Sabonis’ basketball journey trace back to the Portland area, where his father, the legendary Arvydas Sabonis, left an indelible mark on the game.

Following his father's retirement, the Sabonis family relocated to Malaga, Spain, setting the stage for Domantas to blossom as a prodigy in the European basketball circuit under the guidance of his Hall of Fame father.

Sabonis' early professional stint included playing for Unicaja Malaga, a local Spanish basketball club competing in Liga ACB, from 2012 to 2014. This experience laid the foundations for his skills and set the trajectory for a remarkable career. The transition to the American collegiate scene followed, as Sabonis played for Gonzaga University from 2014 to 2016, further honing his game and earning recognition on the American national stage.

Upon entering the NBA, Sabonis quickly asserted himself as a solid player. He has a unique playstyle. His exceptional ball handling, brilliant rebounding, and relentless hustle define his game. His footwork and mastery of the pick-and-roll, notably with guards like Malcolm Brogdon in Indiana and currently with De'Aaron Fox in Sacramento, add layers to his dynamic playing style.

The 2022/23 season Sabonis statistics speak volumes — 19.1 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 7.1 assists per game, solidifying him as an All-NBA Third-Team member. Sabonis' journey from the Portland area to becoming a cornerstone for the Sacramento Kings is a testament to his skill, dedication, and the enduring influence of his basketball lineage.
