Glue Guy

Great question of who is the Sac Kings glue guy. I think the answer is Dedmon but this guy thinks differently.

Well, it's Kyle "Glue" Guy, of course!

 

[macadocious]

It's Barnes.

If Giles develops it'll wind up being him in the future.

 

[Noble]

Has to be Barnes. He's the only successful vet we have.

Definitely Barnes. Dedmon is a role player. A great fit but he's not someone you can consider a true glue type.

Barnes?

I would define "glue guy" a little different than the article does. I think the glue guy is a leader that keeps the team performing at it's highest level and yet doesn't need to dominate the scoring. They are the ones their teammates and coaches want to have on the floor, especially when it matters most.
Thus I picked Barnes.

I was going to add a poll, but it doesn't seem necessary. Add my vote for Barnes to the list.

About Barnes:
“Pop trusts him,” said USA assistant Steve Kerr to The Athletic. “Pop talks about it all the time with our staff. He knows he can count on him to make the right play and to execute under pressure.” (Yahoo Sports)
