who?

 

[iowamcnabb]

G League Ignite product. Has been playing for the Iowa Wolves. Bucket getter

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Position/size?

 

[Kingz19]

Well, he has better head coverage than Devin Carter but I don’t think he’s proper relief with Carter’s current struggles and the need for a backup PG

 

[iowamcnabb]

I have to wonder if the Kings have the record for most Iowa connected players in the league. I think this is the 7th one under Monte.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Position/size?

6’4 220. Dang I guess he is still listed at 638. He may have lost some weight

 

[Kingz19]

Position/size?

6’4” 240 lbs point guard

Yeah, vaguely remember he had some pedigree in the draft as a potential sleeper. Hasn't caught onto anywhere

 

[iowamcnabb]

I don’t see him playing. We need to let Carter develop, stagger the lineups to have one of Deebo, Monk and Lavine out there at all times.

Welcome!

Doesn't seem like what we need unless his handles are better than any of the starters and we have no options to get out of a full court press.

yeh the reality is we probably don’t have minutes for a 14th guy anyway. Just a flyer on talent.

Monk
Lavine
Deebo
Keegan
Sabonis
Keon
Lyles
Laravia
Jonas

Those 9 are playing with Carter and IJ getting spot minutes.

I just remember in 22-23 the 2-3 games Fox didn't play being really glad we had Dellavedova in at least one of them. The absence of a pure PG is still something I'm not thrilled about if we are to make a playoff run.

Welcome! May there be some well-deserved BEAN LIGHTING...I mean BEAM LIGHTING...in your future!!!

Just reading up on Nix, sounds like he rebounds well, plays solid defense and a good passer. Who knows, might be a nice pickup.
It does make me wonder how much faith the team and coaches have in Devin at this point. Thought he supposed to be all that.

Carter isn't an on-ball guard. At least not at this point.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

If the team didn't have faith in Devin he wouldn't be here. He wasn't chosen to contribute immediately.

Competition for Boogie Ellis in Stockton? Also likely going to have a 2 way slot open up here soon

45 pts/10 rebounds/8 assists in the G League

Actually looks like he's lost a lot of weight relative to last time I saw him. Was a hot name coming out of high school, had signed with UCLA and then reneged to go to the G-League. Actually got a lot of burn with Houston two years ago but so far really has nothing to show for it. I'd be surprised if he's anything other than an emergency PG.
