Sacramento Kings Intend To Sign Chuck Hayes To Larger Deal

It was looking like Chuck Hayes wasn't going to be part of the future plans for the Sacramento Kings after he seemed to be diagnosed with a heart condition that might have threatened his playing career. Turns out it was all a false alarm and Hayes is going to be alright!

And Sacramento seems really interested in keeping him around. Marc Stein of ESPN tweeted the following.

Hayes has not formally announced intention to rejoin Kings but one source says SAC expected to increase previous offer slightly to clinch it.

With Samuel Dalembert on his way to Houston, the signing of Hayes became all the more imperative. Because the Kings no longer have a big man defensive presence, Hayes will be a critical fill-in to keep the team stable inside the post, as his footwork and post presence is always formidable for other teams to combat. The Kings will probably commit more money to ensure that Hayes is comfortable with sticking around for a team that misdiagnosed his health situation.

But I'm sure everyone is just happy to see the Fresno product healthy again.

lord have mercy if morey thinks dalembert has the same, if not better, impact on both sides of the court as chuck hayes

Morey finally signs a big black guy and you're complaining?

[rocketsballin]

he's not the prototypical big black guy. size DOES matter, but that's only one part of the fantasy.

at least we get to see the rockets in the playoffs since 09 .

this is off topic, but i been saying since last season that lee plays a lot better with a superstar/elite pg AND a shot blocking center. i got my eye on him whenever we're on defense. we're gonna need his perimeter defense

[Guy986]

I'm confused now. THIS is not a prototypical big black guy?



Nothing can satisfy your desire Roxshoballin. Nothing.

[rocketsballin]

he has the prototypical size and stats. but what about having the skills to pay the bills? dwight howard's got madd skills yo

would be nice if he can prove me wrong. like pair him up with a pf that can play more than a few licks of defense, then watch my team be a top 5 defensive team. who is gonna be that defensive pf? cuz i do not know at the moment

woulda been sweet if we re-signed hayes. but i dunno, sammy d/hayes/scola...it doesnt feel like they can do a whole lot together. maybe i spoiled myself knowing we had a chance at PAU GASOL, NENE HILARIOUS AND CHUCK MOTHA **** HAYES!!! the basketball gods hate houston and i hate them more.

everytime we get close to contending...BAM!!! they unleash they're mighty god-like powers against us. i've had enough. it's time we unite and take a stand, against this treachery. i say we march down their front gate and BLOW THEIR **** HEADS OFF!!! WHO'S WITH ME?

[moofs]

I'd rather have Hayes than Dalembert... but I'd REALLY rather have both.

[MaxRider]

yes the boy is getting paid

[Kal El]

so hayes got voided of his 4 year $21 million deal... now he's back in sactown with a 4 year $22.3 million deal =)

[moofs]

Really good for him, and great that he's going to be fine. And Sacto is a great town.


Still, butts, I say.

[spolgar]

Man, that's a one point three million dollar apology.

It's almost funny.
