Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson had a stern warning for Seattle SuperSonics fans who are excited about the prospect of the NBA returning to the Puget Sound next season.

“Don’t celebrate too early,” he said.

“I just say to the fans in Seattle: be cautiously optimistic. Be smart. But this isn’t about our city against their city, or one mayor against another mayor,” Johnson said. “We have something that’s ours and we want to keep it, and we’re going to do everything we can to make Sacramento the final resting place of the Sacramento Kings.”
