Got all caught up on yesterday's SL games. Here are a bunch of random notes: 🏀Maxime Raynaud looked good early, then looked like he ran out of gas. That happens to guys who haven't played a competitive game in months. Nique Clifford did a little bit of everything, which is his calling card. 1/3

I finally updated the NBA Draft Network Consensus Big Board with the last week of rankings. Final Kings rankings: 17. Nique Clifford 31. Maxime Raynaud nbadraftnetwork.com/consensus-big-…

Happy Devers Day!

Rafael Devers’ career extra-base hits overlaid on Oracle Park McCovey Cove…helloooo

I really liked the first two acts of Heart Eyes. The third act left me scratching my head a bit, but I still enjoyed it.

Why are the Finals not on Fathers Day? What are we doing here?

Congrats Sabonis family!

I know all the hoop heads are mad at Stephen A for playing games on his phone while in attendance at the NBA Finals. But the game developer in me is mad that he chose SOLITAIRE.

What does Mathurin think he did right there?

Mario Kart World: Very good.

You see what the Kings gave up. I see what the Kings would have ruined even if they kept him.

Let’s a go.

On the Game Theory podcast, Sam Vecenie and Bryce Simon proposed the following trade: Orlando gets: Malik Monk Sacramento gets: Pick 16 Jett Howard Jonathan Isaac Thoughts?

Yeah Buster might need to do something.

One last time.

San Francisco Giants: Sam Huff ✅ San Francisco 49ers: Bryce Huff ✅ Your move, Sacramento Kings and Jay Huff.

As frustrated as I am with the Kings, I still love this jersey design.

Going into this series, I assumed the Knicks would run it back next year. Now I’m not so sure.

I’m a sucker for Kings players spending the off-season in Sac, especially if they’re supporting local sports teams.

Wait is Shai a Canadian Giants fan? Did we just become best friends???

Will someone please explain the Bunny Years and why I should care this much?

Can’t wait to pick 12th in 2026

I can’t help but think Tyrese Haliburton gets punked one day. But I’ve been saying that about Draymond for a while now.

Switch 2 launches in 15 days!

Time flies

Update!

Some icons at the FIBA Hall of Fame ceremony

Update!

What I’m hearing is Neve Campbell has been cast as Polaris in the MCU. Other than that, I’ve heard squat.

Sabonis (privately) asking for a trade might be the best thing for everyone involved. Realistically the only way this franchise *might* commit to a rebuild.

There is a very real chance that the Dallas Mavericks draft Cooper Flagg and the Utah Jazz draft Kon Knueppel.

This is dumb.

Go Hornets?

This year there are a lot of teams in the lottery (other than the Kings) that I’m rooting for to end up with Flagg. Jazz Wiz Hornets Nets Raptors Blazers Bulls All could use an injection of relevancy

LOTTO DAY IS HERE.

We should have known.

Nintendo shared a first look at Nintendo San Francisco before the grand opening this week. I'll say it again and again. There should be Nintendo stores in more major cities. Every time I go, Nintendo NY has such a great vibe.

I'm hearing that Keon Ellis will represent the Kings at the NBA Draft Lottery tonight. Kings have a 3.8% chance of moving into the top four and keeping their 2025 first round selection. If not, the pick goes to the Atlanta Hawks. We'll discuss shortly on The Insiders on @espn1320.bsky.social
