Stockton 23/24 thread

Bye O’Connell and Horne hello former Baylor player

In exchange for the rights to Akinjo, Stockton traded away the returning player rights to Alex O'Connell and Jeriah Horne.

O'Connell had shown some intrigue as a high-flyer and floor spacer.

Fare thee well, headband guy. We’ll always have the Summer League Championship.

Season began the other night

Petrusev only played 9 minutes. No points. No field goal attempts. 1 rebound 1 assist

Jeremy Lamb led the Kings in scoring with 26

Skal 14-6 off the bench

Slawson 13 points and 5 turnovers

Seems this was a game for players of low interest to fans of the main club like Comanche, Nowell, Lamb getting the most burn. Important guys like Keon and Ford being with the main club

Very very interesting. I think this suggests Keon's minutes are here to stay. And I wouldn't be surprised if we see Keon converted to a full contract here some point soon.

RIP the Filip Petrusev era 2023-2023

Could we just flip them? Filip gets the 2-way, Keon on a real deal?

The potential issue there is that Filip is probably going to get a big money European contract the second the Kings cut him that would probably be hard for him to refuse.

 

[mrlaze]

I feel like we went from 2 wings to 7 wings. Hopefully these guys will develop into role players and/or trades.

Also, I hadn't checked, but Petrusev's money isn't guaranteed until January 10th, so he's super-duper fungible. But yes, I'd say he's likely to bounce to Europe if/when we cut him.

No point in rushing. He's still got plenty of days left to be with the team. Trades could happen that reduce the roster.

Still wild to see Jeremy Lamb on our G-League team.

 

[Tetsujin]

Jeremy Lamb not a bad emergency option to have in the system in case all of our wing-guards happen to get injured at the same time.

 

[Tetsujin]

Colby continues to flash

 

[Tetsujin]

Colby is way too good to be playing in this game haha

 

[Tetsujin]

Colby is a freaking stud. Holy crap.

 

[Tetsujin]

kings currently playing a Skal/Slawson/Colby frontcourt.
There’s your superstar Sacramento! (Skal just dunked)

 

[Tetsujin]

Slawson not beating those poor man’s Draymond accusations. Really good roleplayering as the pivot big ok offense as a 6’7”/6’8” guy. Defensively sound. Randomly shakes shot.

 

[Tetsujin]

THERES YOUR SUPERSTAR SACRAMENTO! (Skal hit a three)

 

[Tetsujin]

The Stockton Kings are currently up by 24 points on the Stars after the first quarter. Jeremy Lamb with 9, Skal with 8, Colby with 7 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, a steal, a block in 7 minutes. Jordan Ford also looking solid.

 

[Tetsujin]

Jake Stephens in the game!

 

[Tetsujin]

Yeah, I’m gonna assume some guard hungry NBA team out there is gonna poach Lamb from us sooner or later.

 

[Tetsujin]

Colby drills a threeeeee

 

[Tetsujin]

Jake already looking more mobile after a couple of months in our strength and conditioning program.

 

[Tetsujin]

Oh my god Colby. Dude just has it. He’s gonna be a rotation guy for us sooner or later or a team is going to give us a lot for the right to have him.
