Kings Rumors

Kings Release Kalin Lucas, Cameron Reynolds

October 13th, 2018 at 3:53pm CST by clarkcrum

The Kings announced today that they have waived guards Cameron Reynolds and Kalin Lucas, per an official media release. Sacramento’s roster now stands at 15 players on standard contracts and one player on a two-way contract, Wenyen Gabriel.

Reynolds, 23, appeared in four preseason games for the Kings, averaging nine minutes per contest. The Tulane product was also a member of the Kings’ Summer League squads in the Sacramento and Las Vegas leagues in July. As we relayed back in September, Reynolds will be joining the Stockton Kings, Sacramento’s G League affiliate, so his release comes as no surprise.

Lucas, 29, also averaged nine minutes per game with the Kings this preseason. The Michigan State product has an NBA season under his belt, appearing in one game for the Grizzlies back during the 2014-15 season. He may join Reynolds in Stockton now that he’s been waived.

October 13th, 2018 at 8:21am CST by Luke Adams
  • The Kings will be bringing back most of the same players that were on the roster in 2017/18, but with Garrett Temple no longer in Sacramento, the team is without a leader, writes James Ham of NBC Sports California. Head coach Dave Joerger acknowledged this week that Temple is “greatly” missed in the locker room, adding that his club is dealing with a “vacuum of leadership.”

Kings May Sign Jarell Eddie

October 8th, 2018 at 8:46pm CST by Dana Gauruder

The Kings worked out free agent small forward Jarell Eddie over the weekend and may sign him, Michael Scotto of The Athletic tweets.

Eddie has appeared in 34 NBA games with four organizations. Eddie played two games for the Celtics last season after signing a 10-day contract. He didn’t receive another 10-day deal from them. He then played a game for the Bulls on a 10-day contract.

He saw action in 26 games with the Wizards in 2015/16 and five more with the Suns the following season.

Eddie, who played his college ball at Virginia Tech, went undrafted in 2014 and spent time in camps with the Hawks, Celtics, and Warriors before eventually hooking on with the Wizards.

Kings Waive Jamel Artis

October 8th, 2018 at 8:05am CST by Arthur Hill

OCTOBER 8: The Kings officially cut Artis on Sunday, confirming the move in a press release.

OCTOBER 7: The Kings will waive shooting guard Jamel Artis, tweets Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Artis signed a two-year, non-guaranteed deal with Sacramento in July. He would have earned $1,349,383 this season and $1,588,231 in 2019/20 if he had stayed on the roster.

Artis has gotten opportunities with several organizations since graduating from Pitt in 2017, but his only time in the NBA came in 15 games as a two-way player with the Magic last season. He posted a 5.1/2.3/2.5 line in 18.6 minutes per night.

The move leaves the Kings with 18 players in camp, with 15 of them having guaranteed contracts.

Kings Waive Gabe Vincent

October 4th, 2018 at 4:41pm CST by JD Shaw

The Kings have waived Gabe Vincent after signing him to an Exhibit 10 contract earlier in the week, according to the NBA’s Transactions Page.

Vincent, a 6’3″ guard out of UC Santa Barbara, went unselected in the 2018 Draft. In his four collegiate seasons, he held per-game averages of 12.4 points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 29.1 minutes. He holds the school record for most three-pointers made in his career.

Vincent will likely play for Sacramento’s G League team, the Stockton Kings. The Kings also signed and quickly waived Taren Sullivan and Brandon Austin this past week, with the team once again holding one open roster spot.

Kings Sign Gabe Vincent To Exhibit 10 Contract

October 3rd, 2018 at 1:10pm CST by Luke Adams

After opening up a spot on their roster by waiving Taren Sullivan, the Kings have signed undrafted rookie guard Gabe Vincent to an Exhibit 10 contract, tweets James Ham of CSN Bay Area.

Sullivan, who played his college ball at UC-Santa Barbara, went undrafted earlier this year after averaging 12.4 PPG and 3.3 APG with a .450/.377/.805 shooting line in his senior season.

As they did with Sullivan, the Kings are likely just adding Vincent to their 20-man roster briefly in order to secure his G League rights for the upcoming season. Vincent is a particularly good fit for Sacramento’s G League affiliate, the Stockton Kings, since he’s a native of Stockton.

Sacramento is back up to 20 players as a result of the signing.

Kings Waive Taren Sullivan

October 3rd, 2018 at 10:47am CST by Luke Adams

Shortly after signing him to an Exhibit 10 contract, the Kings have waived undrafted swingman Taren Sullivan, according to NBA.com’s log of official transactions.

Sullivan played all four of his collegiate seasons at Division II school Findlay, averaging 17.2 PPG, 6.0 RPG, and 3.2 APG in 28.9 MPG as a senior. He made a strong impression during the G League Player Invitational in August, leading the event with 18.5 PPG on 63.6% shooting.

While that GLPI showing helped him earn a deal with the Kings, Sullivan’s stint on the roster was brief. Still, Sacramento has now secured the NBAGL rights for the 6’6″ wing, and he looks like a good candidate to join the Stockton Kings in the G League this season.

With Sullivan no longer under contract, Sacramento now once again has an opening on its 20-man preseason roster.
