After the drama and disappointment that consumed Ron Artest's life over the past two seasons, he was thrilled just to have the chance to jump into the stands again.
The Sacramento Kings' ever-loving fans were equally excited - and they responded to one of their new forward's many hustle plays with one of many ovations.
Artest scored 19 points in his home debut, Kevin Martin added a career-high 25 and the Kings held on for their 19th straight home victory over the Denver Nuggets, 98-91 Tuesday night.
