Stockton Kings 2024-2025 Open Thread

Shouldn't take weeks but yeah he needs these reps.

I have no idea how many games G-League plays a week, but my intital thinking was to get him a "preseason" sort of set-up where he plays 4-5 games before coming up.

 

[Sluggah]

I like Carter

 

[Tetsujin]

Already clear that Devin Carter is better than every other guy on the floor lol

 

[Tetsujin]

Isaiah also looks good.

 

[The_Jamal]

Icraw looks like he could take that back-up wing spot right now. He's looking fully healthy and not tentative at all, like he did in SL

 

[Tetsujin]

Cissoko with a J-Will-esque pass to the lower bowl food vendors

 

[Tetsujin]

Man, our white guys are killing us lol

 

[The_Jamal]

Cissoko looks great. Just love that for the Spurs, I really do.

 

[Tetsujin]

Don’t want to overreact but Dexter Dennis really might be the worst player I’ve ever seen.

 

[The_Jamal]

Carter with 3 3's in the 1H LOL

 

[Tetsujin]

SPACING ISSUES ARE SOLVED

 

[Tetsujin]

DEVIN DEFENSE AND THEN HUSTLE BOARD

 

[The_Jamal]

Carter stops the fast break by himself, finds the Mason Jones shooter, gets the O-Reb tip to Skal labs. Holy crap

The Josh Hart comps look pretty on the mark. Ridiculous hustle player. Makes nothing but winning plays.

 

[ESP47]

I'm impressed. That shot looks really good. One air ball, one heave at the end of the quarter and the rest have been nothing but net.

HE CLOSES OUT ON ANOTHER 3PT SHOOTER

 

[Sluggah]

I don’t think I’ve ever caught some highlights of a player on YouTube, then when I see them for the first time live, they casually deliver their highlights over 8 minutes.

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings really fired Mike Brown before the one guy who would help solve a bunch of our issues got healthy lol

 

[Tetsujin]

Terry Taylor destroying the spurs rn lol

 

[Tetsujin]

Carter hitting the floor on every single play. Guy gonna fit in with Colby and Domas lol

 

[The_Jamal]

Carter working his ass off; attacks the rim, draws the foul. This dude has no fear.


Also Terry Taylor has always been a "watch" guy for me. He's had some success at the NBA level.

 

[Tetsujin]

The Kings having no wings at the big league level while just sitting on Terry and ICraw at the Stockton level is hilarious.

 

[Caccia]

Does Carter look like he is hurt? What gives? Twice he took hard falls.

Dude is the son of a role player who had to fight for every single minute of his NBA career and plays like it.

 

[Sluggah]

This play by play guy is kinda legit

 

[SacTownKid]

Definitely gassed. He's huffed and puffed his way through the last few minutes haha.

Yeah. The guy is fairly obviously playing his first stretch of competitive basketball since March. That considered, he is going GREAT

don’t like him rubbing his shoulder at the end of the play there though.

 

[BenchMob]

This is the perfect medicine after yesterday, love Carters awareness, hustle, and dawg. I think he will give the big team a punch in the arm, can’t wait
