The Lions maintained top spot in the Super Rugby combined table with an eight-try 57-21 victory over the hapless Kings at Ellis Park.
After a scrappy first half in which they led only 17-10 at the break, the Lions cut loose in the second period, aided by the visitors being reduced to 13 players after two yellow cards in four minutes.
The win keeps the Lions, who had already qualified for the quarter-finals, one point ahead of the Chiefs in top spot as they seek home advantage through the knockout stages.
