Welcome Maxime Raynaud

On draft casuals, the players his statistical profile most resembles are: Ace Bailey, Damion Jones, Marshon Brooks, and Lazar Hayward on offence and Deandre Ayton, Jahil Okafor, Ekpe Udoh, Jaxson Hayes, and Brook Lopez on defence. He’s in the 98th percentile for mid-range shots made, the 79th percentile for rim shots made, and the 75th percentile for three pointers. He doesn’t get to the line much and has a lower assist to turnover ratio.

Interesting. I can get the Lopez comps because Stanford and style, but I see a lot more Porzingis at his absolute ceiling. Lopez didn't really beat guys off the dribble or off the catch like that. Plus Lopez was a lot bigger and was much better on contact.

Percentiles among what?

Lopez was more of a defensive comparison. Thought it was interesting his offensive comparisons are more wings/ forwards than guys who play at the five.
 
It sounds like Raynaud had settled on Sacramento as his preferred destination, which means the Kings will offer him a regular contract. His agent would not have allowed him to fall so far without guarantees from the Kings' front office. He will be the tallest player on the roster, an inch taller than Valančiūnas.

The signing will bring the Kings roster up to twelve players, not including two-way contracts such as Dylan Cardwell. There are still three open spots, with free agency starting next Wednesday. Lyles, LaRavia, Fultz, McDermott, Crowder, and Mason Jones are all free agents.
