The Kings officially announced today that Chris Mullin has joined the organization as the Advisor to the Chairman.

According to a team statement, Mullin will serve in a range of roles within basketball operations.

Mullin had served as an unofficial advisor to Ranadive and D'Alessandro in recent months. ESPN's Marc Stein reported Wednesday that the Kings were going to give Mullin a more official role, setting the stage for the Kings to make it official today.

"I couldn’t be more excited about joining the Kings and playing a part in making this team a winner again," said Mullin in the team's statement. "I’m especially grateful for the unique opportunity to work in close proximity with a world-class ownership group led by Vivek Ranadivé and the talented group of individuals assembled in our front office."
