Kings assign Richaun Holmes and Terence Davis to Stockton

Holmes is out of health and safety protocols and working his way back to game action.

The Sacramento Kings assigned Richaun Holmes and Terence Davis to the Stockton Kings on Tuesday. Holmes as cleared health and safety protocols, and will head down to Stockton as part of reconditioning, according to James Ham.

Terence Davis is also headed to Stockton for the same reason.

As Ham notes, Holmes is not expected to play tomorrow against the Lakers, but should be back on the court for Sacramento soon. He entered health and safety protocols on January 1st. We don’t want to speculate about Holmes’ health in any way, but even asymptomatic players have discussed the challenge of returning to proper conditioning after a layoff of a week or two.

Here’s hoping Holmes can return to form soon.

Holmes I get, but why TD? The guy played in the last two games and missed just over a week before that with his ankle. I don’t recall Fox or Len being sent down to “reconditioning” after they were out.

Reconditioning sounds like something out of “Total Recall.”

Probably depends on how well they recovered – the training staff almost certainly tracks objective metrics like VO2Max and the dropoff from a respiratory illness can be a doozy

Thank you. I didn’t take that into account. I didn’t even think of some of the varied effects of COVID.

In other words, pre-coaching from B-Jax before Gentry firing

They should fire Gentry, hire B-Jax. Then fire B-Jax and hire Doug. Then they’ll surely make the play-in game.

And after all, isn’t the P-in-G all that really matters.

It certainly matters more
than something stupid like rebuilding.

Didn’t C-Webb tried to apply to become GM? In the near future perhaps somehow get Bibby in, finally Vivek can complete Glory Years destruction.

We don’t need another unproven ex jock. I’d want someone like Jerry West who has proven credentials.

Right, but unemployed and unproven ex-jocks are SUPER nice to Vivek…so he has to hire them.

You can scratch West. He already tried helping Vivek-recommenced Malone.

Then Vivek gave him the stiff arm. Vivek doesn’t need any real help and expertise-he’s too smart and already coached hoops previously.

Moving the Kings roster to the G league and moving G league players up to replace them is a step in the right direction.

Why? Is there another candidate who might get a dozen guys who don’t defend to suddenly morph into a middling-or-better defensive squad?

Oh, and do it in three months.

So it isn’t about effort?

Wasn’t Doug supposed to be a great motivator, connaisseur of defense etc?

Some coaches have an immediate impact.

We can keep making excuses for everyone, and there are plenty excuses to make. Even so, there are also some conclusion to draw.

Can Christie become a good coach? Possible. But there are very few indications so far that he’s some kind of a natural prodigee who should be handed the reigns, as some argue.

Doug and other D assistant coach have really made a huge difference with the Kings D.

Wait, there’s been no change?

From Sam Amick this AM in regards to potential landing spots for Ben Simmons…this gives me hope that Monte actually has the freedom to do the right thing and blow this up (save for Hali and Mitchell):
Yet while the Kings have made no secret of their desire to finally break their league-long playoff drought that dates back to 2006, it’s not a singular goal for the front office that is led by second-year general manager Monte McNair. The long-term outlook and a chance for sustained success is still priority No. 1

That actually causes more concern than hope.

it’s not a singular goal for the front office 

It suggests that the Kings still can’t commit to a lane. They are the combo DVD player/VCR that doesn’t do either function well at all.

I have set my expectation so low for Vivek and co. that I’m just relieved it doesn’t say, “the Kings have made no secret of their desire to finally break their league-long playoff drought that dates back to 2006, it’s not a as it’s singular goal

He also stated Philly’s desire to attach Tobias Harris to Simmons.

Just saying, Simmons and Harris for Fox, Buddy, and Barnes works salary wise.

If they aren’t doing a rebuild, I fully support anything that make the team interesting. That’s the bar I have set at this point.

Monte calls Sam and says “I have multiple secret goals that will blow fans away.”

NEXT.

This FO and their media pals have told me since day one the plan is to be successful. At this point they’re just embarrassingly naive. Sam must love putting these quotes out to the wolves.

TBF – the word “secret” was well hidden in plain sight in the article!

Yet while the Kings have made no ECRET-SAY of their desire to finally break their league-long playoff drought that dates back to 2006, it’s not a singular goal for the front office that is led by second-year general manager Monte McNair.

For the life of me, I cannot understand why you send Holmes to Stockton if he’s not going to be playing in some games.

I’m sure he’s been working as hard as possible, but if he needs a couple of outings to get into game shape, why would he go to Stockton, and then not be given the opportunity?

It seems like there’s a pertinent fact missing from the story.

Are they just getting more practice and scrimmages in the G-League? We know they aren’t playing games in the G-League so maybe they are just getting more practice down there?

Must be something like that, or maybe it’s just to be in the clean, sparkling air you find in Stockton. Rejuvenating!
