The location of Monday’s decision held significance for Chriss. Golden 1 Center, the home of the Sacramento Kings, sits just 14 miles from the Sacramento suburb Elk Grove, where the forward starred at Pleasant Grove High School. It also marked the same place Chriss stood the last time his career was at a crossroads — when he was traded from the Houston Rockets to the Cavaliers during a Sacramento road trip — serving yet another reminder of the business he inhabits. “I mean, it sucked,” Chriss told NBC Sports Bay Area Tuesday. “It was full circle but I think it makes it a little easier. I was able to see my family and take my mind off it.”
