assuming Keegan is just playing the California Classic and then avoiding Vegas because there is absolutely nothing for him to prove at this point.
Or, maybe he is heading to Vegas, but will be on a minutes restriction, and might also be going just to coach and mentor the young kids...I wouldn't mind seeing that, to be perfectly honest with you.assuming Keegan is just playing the California Classic and then avoiding Vegas because there is absolutely nothing for him to prove at this point.
The more likely answer is that we wanted to give the fans a reason to show up to the Cali Classic without use having a big name FRP this season so we called in the KeegsI’m surprised he is playing. Don’t really see the point as summer league is largely for evaluation. He had plenty to work on but maybe they are hoping to give him experience leading a team. Or we are showcasing him![]()
The only unannounced UDFA rookie pickup that I see on this roster is Colby’s Xavier teammate Souley Boum
Ohhhh. He's actually pretty good.
I mean I get some people are like "OMG WHAT IF HE GETS HURT???" but I do feel practice like this and real game reps are the best way to get better. And dudes play pick-up all summer long and people don't freak out about that.
What a fun defensive LU. Keon-Kessler-Keegan-Queta. Looks like Ford gets the first crack at the lead-guard and Jones/Slawson are with the subs.
points towards the cap space going more towards role player depth than a third option splash.
Good everyone will feel slow to him.
Working with Fox everyday too. Fox is an awesome teammate, obviously, but I think there's probably a directive to get Keegan ready for a real 3rd option role. 22%+ USG.
Maybe Mike Brown just really wants to see him work on his iso game without Fox or Sabonis around to be a crutch.
with the way he’s talking, it’s pretty clear the Kings have told Keegan they aren’t trading him
