What's Happening?
The Sacramento Kings have signed free agent point guard Adam Flagler to a two-way contract. Flagler, who previously played two seasons with the Oklahoma City Thunder, has struggled with scoring efficiency in the NBA but has been a productive player in the G
League. Last season, he played with the Austin Spurs, averaging 14.5 points and 4.6 assists in 17 games. Flagler is known for his time at Baylor, where he won a national title in 2021 and was one of the Big 12's top three-point shooters.
Why It's Important?
This signing reflects the Kings' strategy to bolster their roster with versatile players who can contribute both in the NBA and the G League. Two-way contracts allow teams to develop talent while maintaining flexibility in their lineup. For Flagler, this contract provides an opportunity to prove his skills at the NBA level and potentially secure a more permanent role. The Kings' decision to sign Flagler indicates their focus on building depth and enhancing their backcourt options, which could be crucial for their performance in the upcoming season.
