The 2025–26 Sacramento Kings season is the 81st season for the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and 41st season in the city of Sacramento. On May 1, 2025, the Kings hired Doug Christie as their head coach.

Following a loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on February 7, the Kings failed to improve upon their 40–42 record from the previous season, while also becoming the first team in the NBA to have a guaranteed losing record for the year. During this time, the Kings suffered a 16-game losing streak from January to February 2026, the longest in franchise history. Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine, and DeAndre Hunter were already sidelined for the rest of the season due to injuries. With a loss to the Charlotte Hornets on March 11, the Kings were eliminated from playoff contention.
