Sacramento Kings to livestream most preseason games free. How to join from home

You don’t need to sign up for a streaming subscription just to watch the Sacramento Kings play from your couch — at least during the preseason.

The Kings will livestream four out of its five preseason games on its website for free — no strings attached. The only caveat: Fans have to be within 75 miles of the Golden 1 Center, in downtown Sacramento at 500 David J Stern Walk, according to the Kings’ livestream portal.

They will not stream the home preseason game against the Warriors on Oct. 15.
