The Sacramento Kings are confident they are on the same page with Buddy Hield. 

“I’ve talked with Buddy as well as his agent, and I think we’re all on the same page, and I think we’re really excited to see Buddy kind of let free in this system. I think he’s going to be fantastic,” Monte McNair said.

Hield signed a four-year, $86 million contract extension before the 19-20 season, but was demoted by Luke Walton to a backup role in favor of Bogdan Bogdanovic. The Kings chose not to match an offer sheet Bogdanovic signed with the Atlanta Hawks.

“I think I’ve said in the past Buddy’s such an incredible talent and especially his shooting at an elite level is something that we saw this offseason was at a premium,” McNair said. “I think we’re really excited to see him in this system and obviously with coach Walton as well as Alvin and Rex and the system they’re going to implement, I think Buddy’s going to look really good in it. I’m excited to see him in training camp and how he can progress there. I think I have the utmost confidence Buddy will continue to play hard every night as he always has.”

The Sacramento Kings have agreed to a one-year, $2 million contract with Glenn Robinson III, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype. The deal only contains a partial guarantee, reports Keith Smith of RealGM.

Robinson split last season between the Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers.

Robinson also received interest from the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, Houston Rockets, Brooklyn Nets and Utah Jazz.

Glenn Robinson III is drawing interest from the Sacramento Kings, Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, and Utah Jazz, according to The Sacramento Bee.

Robinson, who was traded to the Sixers from the Warriors last season, averaged 7.7 points and 3.1 rebounds in 14 games with Philadelphia. 

Frank Kaminsky has agreed to a one-year deal with the Sacramento Kings.

Kaminsky spent last season with the Phoenix Suns. Kaminsky battled knee injuries, but played sparingly in the NBA's restart. 

The Milwaukee Bucks have agreed to sign Nik Stauskas to a one-year deal.

Stauskas was the eighth overall pick in 2014 by the Sacramento Kings.

Stauskas played in Spain last season.

DaQuan Jeffries has agreed to a two-year, $3 million deal with the Sacramento Kings.

Jeffries was on a Two-Way contract with the Kings last season after going undrafted in 2019 out of Tulsa.

Hassan Whiteside agrees to one-year deal with the Sacramento Kings.

Whiteside spent last season with the Portland Trail Blazers.

Whiteside is coming off a four-year, $98 million deal signed with the Miami Heat in 2016.

Keith Smith of RealGM reports Whiteside's deal is fully guaranteed. 

At least one rival team filed a formal complaint to the NBA league office on Wednesday regarding the Milwaukee Bucks' reported sign-and-trade for Bogdan Bogdanovic, sources tell Eric Fischer of Bleacher Report.

The league informed both the Bucks and Sacramento Kings that afternoon that it would open an investigation into the alleged sign-and-trade already being agreed to between the parties.

Bogdanovic's camp insisted they never discussed the particulars of an agreement with Bucks officials and that they were only made aware of the negotiations. Bogdanovic even let Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thannis Antetokounmpo know he had never agreed to a contract with the Bucks.

The Bucks and Kings agreed to a framework of a sign-and-trade with Donte DiVincenzo, Ersan Ilyasova and D.J. Wilson going to Sacramento in exchange for Bogdanovic and Justin James. The Bucks would have then become free to negotiate a contract with Bogdanovic when free agency opened on Friday.

All the players included within the trade framework were notified. 

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thanasis Antetokounmpo stayed in regular contact with Bogdan Bogdanovic over the past few months, sources tell Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report.

They spoke numbers times over the phone and during a few calls Giannis communicated his desire to become teammates with Bogdanovic. 

"Giannis admired his fellow European's toughness and swagger, sources" tell Fischer. 

There was tremendous confidence within the Bucks that Antetokounmpo would sign the supermax when it appeared the team would trade for Jrue Holiday and also acquire Bogdanovic.

"There has since been a categorical step back in that confidence, even if Antetokounmpo does ultimately accept the franchise's offer of a five-year, $228 million supermax extension," writes Fischer. 

Early conversations with the Sacramento Kings centered on Eric Bledsoe and the No. 24 pick. The Kings insisted on Donte DiVincenzo being included, just as the Indiana Pacers had with their Victor Oladipo talks.

Bogdanovic was communicated as Antetokoumpo's preferred addition all offseason.

Because the Bucks used the contracts of Bledsoe and George Hill to acquire Holiday, they would be more limited in what they could offer Bogdanovic in a sign-and-trade.

The Sacramento Kings have declined to match the four-year, $72 million offer sheet Bogdan Bogdanovic signed with the Atlanta Hawks.

The Kings perhaps signaled their intent to not retain Bogdanovic in restricted free agency when they discussed a sign-and-trade deal with the Milwaukee Bucks that eventually fell through last week.

The Kings signed Buddy Hield to a four-year, $94 million extension before the 19-20 season and they drafted Tyrese Haliburton last week, making the shooting guard position crowded for the team.

The Hawks were aggressive in free agency this offseason in hopes of returning to the playoffs in 2021, also signing Danio Gallinari, Rajon Rondo and Kris Dunn.
