Pete D’Alessandro says Kings addressed passing, shooting needs

At the start of the offseason, Kings general manager Pete D'Alessandro set specific goals for himself in terms of roster additions. He says he met those goals.

Specifically, D'Alessandro said he wanted players who can move the ball up the floor and can shoot from three. During media day on Friday, D'Alessandro was asked if he thought he met these goals with his offseason moves. Here's what he had to say.

The questions now are, how much will these additions actually move the needle and what is in store as far as roster moves in the near future? D'Alessandro said he would continue to work the phones, but doesn't want to make any rash moves and that his approach moving forward will be a little different than it was last season.

"I'll continue to be especially aggressive in my calls early in the year, but again, a little more surgical this year. We really want to upgrade on a different level and it's not a complete overhaul. I think we have some really good players on this team," D'Alessandro said. "When I say surgical, I'm looking very specific at needs and talent."

In terms of rotation players, the Kings shipped out the following players this offseason:

And added the following players:

Darren Collison

Nik Stauskas

We'll have to wait and see how it all plays out, but what do you think? Did D'Alessandro and company hit the mark with these moves? How would you grade the offseason?
