Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Aug 22, 2023 1:40 am

Skal Labissiere has agreed to a one-year, partially guaranteed deal with the Sacramento Kings.


Labissiere was a first round pick by the Kings in 2016.


Labissiere last played in the NBA in the 19-20 season with the Portland Trail Blazers.

His first couple of years had him on an upward trajectory, but he just couldn't get on the floor after he was dealt to Portland and washed out of the league.
Doesn't seem like he's played much in the last couple of years, low minutes in the G-League with unimpressive numbers.
He's only 27, so he should be in his "prime", maybe the Kings think they can get the best out of him again.

Nice move, always liked Skal...thought he was an athletic, talented big who just had trouble putting the skills together as a young guy. Offensively I thought he looked solid with the Kings in limited time, it was mainly the defensive struggles were hindering him.
