In 2008 when we drafted Thompson, most of us were shocked. Almost nobody had heard of this senior from Rider. Heck, I hadn't even heard of Rider. But Jason has far surpassed those early expectations of him, and I hope to continue to see him in purple and black for years to come.

Donté Greene, the other player eligible for Restricted Free Agency, has not received his Qualifying Offer yet. It isn't expect to be extended either, sad news for fans of Donté's great personality. If this continues to be the case, Donté could still be back in Sacramento next year, but as an unrestricted free agent, he'll have a lot more options.
