JULY 15: Mason signed a three-year deal with the Kings, according to Keith Smith of RealGM (via Twitter). Mason’s deal is believed to be fully guaranteed for 2017/18 and he will likely hit restricted free agency in 2020.
JULY 13: The Kings have signed Frank Mason, according to the team’s website. Sacramento has remaining cap room, so Mason may receive more than just a two-year deal, and it’s possible that it will be worth more than the minimum salary.
Mason spent four seasons at Kansas where he played in 145 games and averaged 13.0 points per contest. He was named the AP National Player of the Year during his senior season after leading his team to a 31-5 record while averaging 20.9 points and 5.2 assists per contest.
Sacramento selected the point guard with the No. 34 overall pick in the 2017 draft. He is one of four prospects drafted by the team.
Good for frank. Another undervalued player underdrafted because he’s a senior. Guy knows how to play
He was drafted 34 overall
That’s underdrafted. 2nd round is no guarantee to get any money or make a team. id rather be tied to mason for a first rd contract than some of the dudes in rd 1
I think you read it as “undrafted” maybe.
He went 34 b/c he is 5″10, but draft position doesn’t matter once it’s over.
It does matter in terms of contract structure. He’ll be an RFA after 2 years instead of having team options in years 3 and 4
3 years
The Kings depth at PG should be solid for at least the next three years(length of Hill’s contract)
Hill-Fox-Mason
Mason is going to be the steal of the draft in my opinion
That second round was crazy. Tons of talent
Absolutely agree. Frank Jackson, Frank Mason, Jawun Evans, Dwayne Bacon, etc.
Ojeyele and Jordan Bell too
Sterling brown, thornwell, bolden
