Who are the celebrities watching the Kings-Warriors fight for the playoffs?

The celebrity watch list was a short one on Tuesday night at Golden 1 Center for the Kings-Warriors play-in contest.

The biggest name was California Gov. Gavin Newsom for the I-80 game. But there were no non-political big-name front-liners such as rappers or former world champion boxers.

But former Kings Brad Miller and Peja Stojakovic were on hand. And there is nothing short about Miller’s long locks or Stojakovic’s shooting range back in the day. They sat near Kings majority owner Vivek Ranadivé.

Also spotted was Rich Paul, a big name on the player-agent circuit. He represents Kings star guard De’Aaron Fox, whose wife Recee, sat with the agent courtside.

The game was also fitting for a soccer guru in Kevin Nagle, the chairman/owner of Sacramento Republic FC. He sat courtside near Warriors majority owner Joe Lacob.
