    Them are the rules. We already spent our allowed cash in the Nurk trade.

    David Stockton is a kid who I thought was living off his daddy's name his first couple years at Gonzaga, even his senior year he wasn't even overseas talent. He had a really good training camp with the Kings a few years back and George Karl kept him around. He's bounced back and forth between the D-League. From what I'm hearing, Joerger likes him a lot and he might be a part of the rotation this year.



    Not bad for a kid who as a freshman at Gonzaga was 5'8" 140lbs and had the ugliest jumper I'd ever seen.

    Jordan Bell had looked really good in his brief time with Golden State. Def doesn't a ceiling as high as Green but probably a bit more athletic. Can easily see him getting tough D assignments as he progresses in the NBA. Chicago ending up trading a good player for cash their owner pocketed.

    Drf. has a chance to go down as one of the best in recent history. Good class to get three number one picks.

    And so deep too. On top of a great top 10 - guys like Mitchell, Adebayo, John Collins, Swanigan, Kuzma & Bell coming at value much later in the draft. Crazy!

    Beano Udrih just got released. Now THAT dude would be a quality backup PG! Been in the year 14 seasons, but he would be an upgrade I believe.

    Slightly confusingly, teams have been waiving players AND THEN signing them to "two-way" contracts. That could be what's happening here. Or on the other hand, the Kings have a shit-ton of PGs, including one that's being paid $20M.

    I suppose a possibility but 2-way guys can't be the rotation full-time as they are only allowed to play a certain amount of games for the big league club.
