Adam Flagler

And the Kings are continuing this experiment with him at the point guard position.

Didn't play Alfred Payton, didn't play Adam Flagler in this game.

Of course, no Malik Monk.

So they're really sticking with this Nick Clifford at the point.

I hate watching losing basketball to Sandro Momokelishvili and Jake Laravia back-to-back games.

You know, while watching Adam Flagler and company Adam Flagler leading this team out there.

Watching on a Jumbotron broadcast where they're showing replays half of the time.

Not the most enjoyable.

So doing a very good job of that.

He's not afraid to shoot threes, which I just absolutely love from him.

Adam Flagler, I don't know why the Kings signed this dude.

Like, I'm sorry.

We'll see him in future games here.

Adam Flagler got into the game for one minute, but we didn't really see him either.

The Kings' next preseason game is against this same Lakers team, but it is down in L.A.

So I'm assuming we're going to see Ben Simmons in that game.

And then you have a guy like Alford Payton, uh, as a vet on a Exhibit 10 deal, who has a chance to get that last standard contract on this team with the Kings not having a lot of point guard depth.

They have Darius Acuff, they have Malik Monk, Adam Flagler on a two-way.

That's it.

I mean, Ben Simmons as well, right? Uh, and so could Alford Payton be a, a third-string point guard on this team? He's a guy who, of course, isn't a great shooter, so the Kings are kind of collecting those veterans in Ben Simmons, in Alford Payton.

Also, just to add a couple of things, Perry also reset his two-way roster.

He signed Adam Flagler and Jonathan Mogbo.

I really like Mogbo.

He's a super long athletic defender.

I'm sorry.

Adam Flagler.

Have I been calling him the wrong name the entire time? That is definitely me.

Older than Keegan Murray, point guard.

Tell me about

Adam Flagler or Emmanuel Sharp.

What are we excited about? I would

say a couple of things.

Then we have the next group, which is guys who were kind of expected to make a pretty good impact.

Then we have the middle group, which is guys who, you know, could be rotational players maybe they're not maybe they they should make an impact at some point during the season but the expectations aren't too high then we have the guys who maybe could crack the rotation and then we have the guys on the bottom uh which i've labeled as the who players which maybe is a little bit disrespectful but really nationally these guys are not known at all or at least people don't know that they're on the sacramento kings so starting off with that bottom group of the who's we have the bottom two players on this player pressure index and now we do have to go through 16 players so i'm not going to spend too much time explaining each of these rankings but we have daquan plowden and adam flagler at the bottom here both scoring a 7 out of 20 on the player pressure index both of them had identical scores of all four categories uh so a one out of five in terms of local expectations a one out of five in national expectations a one out of five in terms of their role on the team but a four out of five in their contract status so i think the first few are pretty self-explanatory these guys have no expectations on them.

People nationally don't know these guys.

People locally maybe don't even know these guys.

Adam Flagler's on a two-way contract.

Daquan Plowden just got off of a two-way contract and onto a standard contract.

Good for him.

They are both...

He's going to do the workout training camp.

Well, as of right now, the Kings do have a roster spot for him because as of now, they have 16 players listed on their roster, not including Alfred Payton, but two of them are two-way contracts in Jonathan Mobo and Adam Flagler.

That's right.

So there's another roster spot open that Payton could take.
