Chris Hansen, who tried unsuccessfully to purchase the Sacramento Kings and bring them to Seattle has been revealed to be the secret donor behind an attempt to put the Sacramento arena proposal that it's City Council passed up for a public vote.
Hansen has said that it is a decision that he regrets, however it remains to be seen if Seattle city officials and the NBA (not exactly known for it's credibility in the Sonics move), and Seattle area citizens will trust him going forward. It's pretty clear that the idea of the Kings moving here is DOA, but we need to stay tuned to see if Hansen is the man to bring NBA back here either by move or expansion.
