I saw on twitter that Walton or Vlade, I wish I had saved the tweet now, made a reference that there could be a surprise for the last spot on the roster but they wouldn’t say who. Seems like we could all speculate as that’s what we like to do. Is it one of these guys:

Wenyen Gabriel
Justin James
Kyle Guy
Someone who got waived from another team
Iman Shumpert
any of the deep camp guys like Lyndon, Ulis, etc
Carmelo Anthony..... not

In response to my own post...I think it’s Wenyen or Justin James. I think they like James and what he can bring but he needs to play down in Stockton.....Gabriel is Going to be the guy I think

I can see from how Vlade operated in the past that he sees Lydon to understudy Belly.

I just don't see Lydon as a threat to make any kind of impact this year, and no danger of getting claimed. So he could've been a Stockton keep, as they are overloaded with bigs again. If they keep Lydon and Swanigan, the Kings could have 5 rotation quality bigs in front of them, plus Ariza and Barnes who play small ball 4. Even Gabriel can log minutes on his 2 way contract. '

Maybe it's small potatoes, but the end of roster construction hopefully isn't complete.
