If I’m Buddy, I’m not buying either of those comps. Oladipo’s deal was signed three years ago, and before he made his latest leap. Brogdon’s is more recent, but he was just coming off of a foot injury that caused him to miss almost two months. I’m using the Barnes contract as a starting point...

Hopefully this episode, plus the cap spike a few years back that allowed the Warriors to land Durant, convinces everyone that basing the cap off a single year’s projected basketball related income is a bad idea. It should be an average, or something along those lines, to smooth the impacts from...

Given the rest of what he says about the Kings, calling Fox and Hield backups would have fit right in!

That doesn’t say backup?

Isn't 4 years an easy call over 5? My understanding is that team can only have two players designated on 5-year rookie extensions at a time, and I'd guess they have those earmarked for Fox and Bagley.

Always fun to consider this “what if” scenario. Too bad there’s not really a good forum for “international friendlies” to see it happen—at least, a match against the US.

I would not say "regardless of the civil suit outcome," no. Until the civil suit outcome? Maybe. That outcome will not come anytime soon, though.

For those wondering why Tennant did not participate in the investigation, there's a pretty good article by the Bee examining the issue: https://www.sacbee.com/sports/nba/sacramento-kings/article234317852.html

I’d be curious to see how much these numbers vary year to year. Lakers and clippers benefit on travel distance by sharing a building, I would guess.

The league is using the Kings to sell League Pass subscriptions.

Interesting! Are these events freestyle, or medley relays?

Not sure if this has been reported before.

Swanigan and Lydon, assuming they make the team, shouldn’t be penciled in for regular rotation minutes, so I wouldn’t worry about them. Still, there are about 12 guys I’d be comfortable with playing regularly. Establishing the rotation will be an interesting puzzle for Walton. Given the depth...
