Overall, McLemore as of now has over 102,000 followers on his Twitter account, and he used that as an advantage to help him find his once lost puppy.
This story also shows that Kings fans have the backs of their players, whether it is basketball related or not. Hopefully, that remains the same once the NBA regular season comes into play.
