Andrew Unterberger’s keen eye for close captioning caught this first, and now Kings rookie Nik Stauskas has a new nickname thanks to an angelic bit of close captioning in last night’s Kings-Suns game.
Right at the start of the second quarter, Stauskas dropped in a triplet and the close captioning named him as “Sauce Castillo.”
Even Nik got in on the fun:
Wait what does "Sauce Castillo" mean? Since when was that my nickname lol!! 😂😂

Henceforth, Stauskas shall only be referred to as “Sauce Castillo.”
