The deal will sell the Kings for approximately $500 million, with the Seattle group seeking relocation to Key Arena for the 2013-'14 season.

It's about time. Will believe it when it's officially finalized though. Wish they could somehow already move for this season ASAP, but I know that's obviously just not possible.

Most likely. I don't see them keeping the Kings as the name. If anything, they may leave it up to fan vote
