do the Spurs play him at the 3?
I don’t know exactly what they are doing right now. They had Sochan playing point for some reason and Collins was playing center as far as I could tell before he was hurt.

Keegan trying to show us we already have our third star in house.
I also want to see more transition points.

I'm excited about the rebounds. It's high time someone supports Sabonis on the boards.

This is why we don't need another max player. Keegan has already made Huerter and Barnes redundant within the offense which in turn has put more attention on their defensive limitations. We'll have to see if Monk has outplayed whatever contact we can offer him. If we are able to keep him, there aren't enough shots left to support a LaVine, Siakam, or comparable high usage scorer.
Personally I think we need to unload Barnes, Huerter, and Lyles ASAP and not take back any big contracts in return because we'll need that cap space (just over 40 million) to keep our core group together. We should be filling in around Fox, Murray, Sabonis, and Monk with affordable defensive roleplayers on mid level deals.
Moar Keon-Keegan lineups please.
And hopefully more Keon with both Fox and Monk as a SG. He needs to be playing more than backup PG.
I think Lyles should stay. He has excellent +/- this season (it's skewed by him not playing early in the season when Fox was out as well), had modest positive one last season and excellent in the PO series. Trey is shooting 40% from outside and solid defensively. His salary is less than 6% of the cap and will be even lower percentage next season. Lyles looks like he can be a good top-8 in playoffs rotation.This is why we don't need another max player.

From the Slater article on Keegan. He also said that the kings see Fox Sabonis and Murray as the big three now and in the future. Looking for pieces around them. Also mentioned they admire the slow team building path the Nuggets took. Probably see Monte and Wes do the same
“Murray, per Synergy Sports Technology, has only given up 28 points in 47 isolation situations this season, placing him in the 91st percentile. The efficiency against him ticks up in pick-and-roll situations, but it’s still under a point per possession faced. He needs to get more adept navigating screens and guarding in traffic, but one Kings staffer suggested the possibility he could become an All-Defense type wing by the time his prime arrives.”
Ya you can see he has all defensive potential would be really nice to get another 6’6 + wing to help him on defense.
And Jokic ain’t walking through that door nothing slow about a rebuild when a generational player lands in your lap
Going to be? Tetsu-chan, he already is.
The kid is going to be an absolute star and no one is going to be able to convince me otherwise.
