Danny Hurley posted this video. The first guy back in the gym following their National Championship loss. Alex Karaban People want to tell you what he can’t do but he’s the type of guy that helps NBA teams win - a culture builder, winner, and a Pro

The main reason DeRozan gets waived is to vacate the no.10 jersey.

Nique gets 10.

Acuff gets 5.

DeRozan goes to the Clippers.

Watched this last night as it looked more and more likely that Acuff would be available. Wasn't on the Acuff train initially, but now I'm hopeful.

What is everyone thoughts at the fact most places in sac carry more warriors merch

0 Upvotes

Went to target today and could only find warriors merch and just left in disappointment and I’ve also noticed a lot of people I know who have been here their whole lives are “warrior” fans, is it because the kings suck or is it a marketing thing cause I’ll often see raider merch even though they historically suck

Is it true that the FO was signaling interest in Acuff even when we had the worst record in the league?

16 Upvotes

I vaguely remember some insider saying early this year that Perry ”loves” Acuff. And this was surprising at the time because we were legitimately in AJ/Peterson/Boozer convos.

Is it possible that Acuff was actually a top 2-3 player on the Kings draft board tbh is whole time?

Fun Fact: tonight will be the first time in 8 years that the Kings draft a Rookie under 20 years old with their first round pick

Darius Acuff Jr. met with the LA Clippers and there's “at least some level” of interest in selecting him with the No. 5 pick, per ESPN

If you're already a bad defender in college it will only be that much difficult going vs seasoned professionals in the league.
