California sports teams share Valentine’s Day love on social media

California sports teams were feeling the love this Valentine’s Day, and they took to social media to show it.

Sacramento Kings

The Kings chose Twitter to show their fellow NBA just how much they loved them.

Their first tweet said, “We heard they stopped making those candy hearts, but we found one more batch of them ...” and continued into a thread of images, one for each NBA team.

The thread ended with the Kings’ tweet to the Los Angeles Lakers: an image of a broken candy heart captioned, “And we didn’t forget you, Lakers”.

The Kings lost to the Lakers 4-3 in the 2002 NBA Western Conference finals.

The team hosts Southern Utah on Thursday night.
