Looks like he can do an adequate job as a backup big. He sure plays like PF/C. I like that he can pass out of the double team and doesn't try to do too much. He hustles and has a solid game around the basket game.

Hey, lets hope he works out.

Between this dude, Robinson, CJ, Markel, Boatright, and Cliff someone has to pan out right?

The one thing I will say now is that I think King is being allowed to do as he pleases as long as he can shed salary. It's not the ideal way to get younger and athletic but hell you either try and fail or don't at all.

The upside to bringing in these guys is that they are all gonna bust their tails to make the team and get their next contract.

I'm rooting for the kid to make it and be a good NBA player, but the writing on the wall is obvious with all these moves... Kings trying to cover up all his terrible mistakes by securing all this young talent.

Reed, Boatright, trading for RHJ, Robinson, Larkin... at least he's making an effort and learning from his mistakes.
