The Kings have signed former Stanford big man Maxime Raynaud to a three-year contract worth $5.95MM, sources tell Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).
The deal is fully guaranteed for the first two seasons, with a team option for 2027/28, Scotto adds. It has been officially completed, per NBA.com’s transaction log.
Sacramento completed the signing using the second-round pick exception. As we detailed earlier today, a three-year contract that uses that exception and starts at the rookie minimum is worth a total of $5,949,688. Second-round picks can sign their contracts during the July moratorium, which is why the Kings didn’t have to wait until July 6 to get it done.
Raynaud, who spent his full four-year college career at Stanford, had a massive season in 2024/25, averaging 20.2 points and a conference-high 10.6 rebounds, along with 1.4 blocks per game. He also began shooting from beyond the arc a little more, knocking down 34.7% of 5.5 three-pointers per game.
Raynaud was the No. 42 overall pick in last week’s draft.
