There is a pay wall(edit, actually you just need to sign up for a free account), but can you summarize the story cause I’d rather not right now.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Jalen McDaniels cost the Kings a 2nd round pick to send him to San Antonio last season at the trade deadline. Was she also banging the sucky McDaniels brother??
And all this time we thought the Kangs made trades due to basketball-related reasons. Explains a lot of their puzzling moves.

So the arrest of Comanche was 2 years ago, but the part about the owner's daughter just coming out now. Pablo Torres could have got to the bottom of this quicker.
Nearly two years ago now, Stockton Kings center Chance Comanche was arrested for the kidnapping and murder of 23 year old Marayna Rodgers. It was a shocking and tragic story, but today new revelations revealed by the New York Times give the story an even stranger turn, as it appears that Anjali Ranadivé, daughter of Sacramento Kings owner Vivek Ranadivé and then GM of the Stockton Kings, was also romantically involved with Comanche.

Re: OT: Nepotism backfires on the Kings
Using your wealth and influence to get your daughter railed by a series of G-leaguers (including an *alleged* murderer!) is an interesting choice.
This is after failed attempts to use the aforementioned wealth and influence to get her a career as a singer or actress, correct?
This story is super weird (what I can piece together from behind the paywall). Just another nepobaby I never want to hear from/about again. Go be unfathomably rich quietly and don't bother anyone.
