Kings players popcorned Nik Stauskas's house

Sacramento Kings stars Rudy Gay, Demarcus Cousins and Reggie Evans were all riding the bench with injuries on Monday night, so the trio found a productive use of their time before the game, going to rookie Nik Stauskas's home and covering it with popcorn.

Sacramento Kings stars Rudy Gay, Demarcus Cousins and Reggie Evans were all riding the bench with injuries on Monday night, so the trio found a productive use of their time before the game, going to rookie Nik Stauskas's home and covering it with popcorn.

While popcorning is traditionally aimed at cars, the Kings were forced to be unconventional as Stauskas does not have a car, or even a driver's license.

The guard returned home after the team's victory over the Lakers in the season's final home game to find that his home was covered in a thin layer of buttery goodness.

The team has posted an extended video on its website, which gives a good sense of Stauskus's mixture of amusement and concern over how he is going to get all of these kernels out of his house.
