I think the 3rd year is only partially guaranteed


Yea, Kings fans saw Temple do that with last year's rookies. And Vlade had to have mentioned mentoring the young guys when talking to veteran free agents.
How do you know they wouldn't have developed better if they had just played more? I'm fukking with you that is exactly what happened so I don't see the point tbh.

Maybe they could have but think I have too much bad memories of McLemore getting minutes from the jump and not developing into what we had hoped and bringing him along more slowly instead could've helped his development


I'm now a little disappointed. I think they're rushing it when they should be trying to draft one more young star
I hope they're not rushing it either but how much more wins do you think Hill and a 36 year old Z-Bo gets them? I think they still end up with a top 7 pick

I mean I'm only watching the Kings because of Buddy, but the only time Mclemore got significant minutes according to bball ref is his sophmore year it was progress for him and his most efficient year at only 21. So I didn't actually watch games so you can penalize me for that, but the stats say his most productive year was the year he actually got to play and after that his minutes, shots, and production dropped. Also, it's possible he just wasn't a great fit in such a limited role.
