The true messiah McLemore has returned to the Kings. They're now in serious contention to make it out of the lottery!
[Sacramento Bee - August 30, 2018 09:25 AM] Former Sacramento Kings exec allegedly took millions in team sponsor money for beach homes Spoiler A former top executive of the Sacramento Kings is suspected of siphoning off $13.4 million from two of the team’s top sponsors and using the funds to purchase beachfront property in Southern California, sources have told The Sacramento Bee. The FBI and federal prosecutors are investigating Jeffrey R. David, 44, the former chief revenue officer for the Kings who currently holds the same position with the NBA’s Miami Heat, for what sources say was a sophisticated money-laundering scheme that allegedly diverted $9 million from the Golden 1 Credit Union and another $4.4 million from Kaiser Permanente Foundation. David, whose position with the Kings was eliminated on June 1 and who joined the Miami Heat as chief revenue officer in July, did not respond to a message seeking comment that was left on his cellphone voice mail early Thursday. No criminal charges have been filed in the case, which was referred to federal investigators by the Kings a week ago. Federal officials would not comment on the matter, but the Kings issued a statement Thursday to The Bee confirming the investigation.
That's almost enough money to cover Ryan Anderson's contract. Damn Kings could have used that to pay Ryan. Now they guy is monkeying up our trades for the Johnsons. @Deuce
[James Ham - September 21, 2018] Kings' Bogdan Bogdanovic re-injures left knee, needs another procedure For the second time this offseason, the Serbian is heading for a procedure on his left knee after an MRI revealed a minor injury. The timetable for his return is unknown at this time. Bogdanovic re-injured his knee Monday while playing for the Serbian national team in World Cup qualifying. He felt discomfort in the knee during the first quarter against Estonia and left the game early. Once Bogdanovic was back in Sacramento, the Kings medical staff evaluated the 26-year-old wing this week and determined that action was needed. According to the Kings, Monday’s procedure will be performed by Dr. Riley Williams in New York, and Bogdanovic is expected to make a full recovery. The team will send an update when more is known.
SacTown won that as soon as the Pelicans offered Cousins a meh contract, i know they're doing fine/better without Boogie but they still thrown away assets.
fwiw: they also received Frank Mason, Justin Jackson and Harry Giles via the 2017 draft picks in the trade.
It's going to be hard to keep the kings out of the playoffs this year. Willie-Cauly-Stein looks better than KAT, De'arron Fox hounded Mike Conley the entire 4th quarter of that game they won, Buddy Heild, Justin Jackson, and damn who else do they have on that team, oh yeah, Marvin Bagley. Plus they have a hell of a coach. I wasn't a big Dave Joerger fan when he was with the grizzlies, but he has proven to me that he might be a top 5 coach in the league right now. And don't look now but the kings might have the most talent in the league on that team.
another player who, it seems, thibs didnt know how to use.... went from 6ppg under thibs to 15 ppg under joerger
One of the biggest surprises of the season for me. Bjelica is balling! What a deal for the Kings. The Sixers fans are probably pretty mad right now after how Bjelica screwed them over in the offseason. Toni Kukoc 2.0
And I thought Bjelica was another horrible King signing. turns out it might be the best Free agent signing this off season Imagine if they weren't tanking and kept Garrett Temple, they might even have another win. Scoring 140 points? Crazy stuff Let's see how long this craziness last. If someone told me Kings would be better than the Rockets November 1, 2018, I would have laughed. "Rocket's can't score 85 pionts but Kings can score over 140 points!" GET OUT OF HERE!
They don't have a lot of talent, but it seems like their team is clicking. Reminds me of the 2014-15 Rockets when Dwight went down with an injury. Kings might be in the play for that 8th seed.
Looks like De'Aaron Fox might fulfill the high hopes I had for him. He reminded me of WB except he talks a whole lot more, isn't a complete selfish jerk and isn't quite as muscular. 31/15/10
Suns drafted Josh Jackson over him. LOL. Now Suns need a PG. Josh Jackson to join Bender and Chriss and be out of the league in 3 years.
