Sacramento Kings: Summer League Roster Breakdown
By Adam McGee
Guide To The Rest Of The Roster
MarShon Brooks
Having already had stops in Brooklyn, Boston, Golden State and LA, Brooks has yet to realize his potential in the NBA. He’ll play with the pressure of knowing that the interest of GM’s around the league may be waning, and he’ll have a point to prove.
Jake Odum
Odum is a point guard from Indiana State who produces solid but unspectacular play. He’ll score and assist, but not exceptionally for his position, although he is an above average rebounder for a point guard.
Ra’Shad James
James spent last year with the Kings D-League affiliate, the Reno Bighorns. In 16 minutes per game in Reno, James put up pretty pedestrian numbers all-around, and is probably more notable for his explosive dunking abilities.
Nick Wiggins
Nick is the lesser known of the Wiggins family in Summer League, with his brother Andrew Wiggins being the number one overall pick. Nick was a role player in Wichita State, the smaller Kansas basketball program last season.
Rion Brown
At 6″6′, Brown is a small forward who does most of his damage moving towards the rim. The former Florida Hurricane isn’t a prodigious three-point shooter, but is capable, while also a willing rebounder.
Brendan Lane
Coming from Pepperdine University, Lane is an intriguing power forward. Lane scored and rebounded the ball well last season, and also has the ability to stretch the floor better than most men of his size.
Josh Owens
Having been undrafted out of Stanford in 2012, Owens has gone on to Europe to try and build a career for himself. After training camps in Italy, he most recently found himself with Hapoel Tel-Aviv in Israel.
Eric Moreland
Moreland is an undrafted prospect out of Oregon State that many projected to be a possible late second-round pick. Moreland is a dominant rebounder, averaging over 10.3 boards per game last year.
Dwayne Jones
Since going undrafted out of St. Josephs in 2005, Jones has traveled the world playing basketball. Aside from spells in Europe and Asia, Jones has briefly played for four different NBA teams.
Sim Bhullar
Last but definitely not least is the 7″5′, 360lb, man mountain that is Sim Bhullar. Bhullar worked out for the Kings prior to the draft, and will be one of the most interesting guys to keep an eye out for at Summer League. Bhullar impressed during his time at New Mexico State, particularly on the defensive end.
