A huge +$% contract that will be a burden on them for years if Salmons doesn't play at an All-Star level.
He only has one more year than Beno though making essentially the same amount of money per season. And the Kings have the lowest payroll in the league. One contract is not going to burden them.

21.6 compared to 32.

That's a 10 million dollar difference over one year.

I think that's significant enough, that's being able to sign a FA in  2013-2014.

But agree to disagree I guess.

Chad Ford is saying Tristian Thompson would be the pick at 7 (If available) and the cats are deciding between Alec Burks and Chris Singleton at 9 (Pending availability)


I still think it will be Biyombo

I am ignoring the Smith deal because it has zero percent chance. If it is true and the Wolves select Kanter and didn't pull the trigger........

Biyombo has a contract issue with Spain. May not get clearance from federation right away to go to NBA - Per Woj
