Kings trade Skal for Caleb Swanigan

#4
I like it. Swanigan hasn't gotten a chance to play. He's a fantastic rebounder. He's small for the PF position but he's gritty. Skal wasn't doing anything here anyway. Kings apparently liked his skill set before the draft.

He's still a young player (21). Limited upside but there's something there. We need rebounding and that's his specialty.

I don't know anything about him, but very happy to hear Vlade went after a young rebounding specialist. Potential back up big man and that would be the #1 skill we need to compliment everything else on the roster. Plenty of firepower already.

Think this is unfortunately where Skal ran into issues here. He has a skill-set, we just have a bunch of dudes on the team with that skill-set who do it much better.

Liking this deal more. Thought he was from class as Skal, but he is only 2nd year. So extra year of young big.

His summer league highlights shows he can move better than I thought. Pretty skilled, able to bring ball up court, some nice passes, hit some 3s. Advanced low post game too. Uses big solid body to bang for boards.
