I hope it works out for the kid.

Ditto. I assume it was too late for him to join a Euro League team so late in their season. Hope he at least gets a Summer League invite and a chance to show off that defensive prowess of his...

Thanks for the update, hawkschop!

JC3 has been signed for the rest of the season by SAC-Town.

The Sacramento Kings have signed guard Jared Cunningham for the remainder of the season.

Signed to a 10-day contract on March 31, Cunningham is averaging 3.0 points (.235 FG%, 10-10 FT), 0.7 rebounds, 0.5 assists and 6.3 minutes per game in six games off the bench for the Kings.

Sounds like they are at least giving him a real look, so good for him. I imagine with him being a top-player in the PAC-10 years ago, they may be more familiar with his talents. Kinda wish we could have traded him for a second rounder.

Ah well, best of luck, kid.
NOTE: Man those offensive stats are terrible. I imagine it's his defense that's of value to the Kings...

Jared beat the odds and actually made the active roster for LAC:

...in the last few games of the preseason, Cunningham, in terms of play, pulled further away from Ingles in terms of preseason play.

Including his 23-point outburst against the Golden State Warriors, Cunningham averaged 12 points on 40 percent shooting in the final four preseason games. While the shooting percentage isn’t ideal, Cunningham’s tenacity on defense and ability to draw fouls — Cunningham drew 5.2 free-throws per game (27th overall in the preseason) — played heavily into Cunningham getting the spot over Ingles.
