Fox is doing on ongoing diary of his time in India for The Undefeated.

Buddy has a “neon green” light

James Ham reports that Coach Walton is giving Buddy Hield a “neon green” light to shoot threes.

How Vivek became the lead owner for the Kings

Sam Amick goes in depth on how the Kings ownership group came together, and how David Stern’s influence resulted in Vivek Ranadivé being the Kings lead owner instead of Mark Mastrov.

Finally, Jason Anderson reports that the Kings gave Harry Giles an MRI.

The Kings just gave me the following statement regarding center Harry Giles III: "A precautionary MRI was conducted on Monday morning which revealed no new findings."

“No new findings” is an interesting way to phrase it. We’ll continue to see how involved Giles is in preseason games once the team returns from India.
