The Sacramento Kings are moving into a new arena next season, and with it is expected to come a redesigned look. Here’s what it apparently will be, via SportsLogos.net:

It’s a throwback to the Kings’ Cincinnati/early Sacramento logo, with a basketball/crown combination but an updated font.

There also appear to be a couple of lion graphics they’re using as alternates.

And it should be noted, the Kings’ final logo redesign will not be in black and white—the photos that leaked are the trademark filings. It’s unknown what the colors will be on the final version, but purple will probably be involved.
Overall, these are a nice change from their current logo. It’s a good combination of retro and modern.
