Udrih not only scores; he sets up others with driving ability

This was, in every way, exactly what the Kings hoped for when they signed Beno Udrih on Nov. 1.

Yes, he was a scoring point guard, but they believed he also could find his teammates. And the fact that he spent much of the last two seasons on San Antonio's bench was no indication that he belonged there for good.

Beno's best was on display for much of Sunday's game against Detroit at Arco Arena, as he finished with 23 points and six assists.

"We now have someone people have to pay attention to on pick and rolls, someone who can penetrate and make plays for other people," Kings coach Reggie Theus said recently. "Roles change and situations change, and we should be getting better by getting (Udrih)."

Gotta give Petrie mad props for bringing Beno to Sac. I guess he still has some magic in him after all! Great acquisition!!!!

He might not have the fastest wheels among league PGs, but he has the ability to change speed in his drive, and has a midrange game in him. If he can develop a good knack of taking advantage out of what the opponents defense give -not forcing the issue, he will be effective by using skills rather than pure athleticism.

Athleticism? ^ i never really thought of him that way...
