I see why the Kings would like to work him out — you want to work out everyone you can. You'd invite John Wall and Evan Turner for workouts if you didn't fear getting hung up on. But I have no clue why Favors' agent consented to a workout in Sacramento. It'd make sense to me only if Favors' camp wanted to prove he could hang with Cousins and even outplay him. But from what I hear, Favors' camp has laid down the special rules: no one-on-one drills, no media.

It just makes no sense.

I'm not saying the Kings have intimated to Favors' agent (Wallace Prather) the team could try to move up to nab Favors if this workout turns out well. I'm not even sure that'd be an incentive for Favors' camp — is Sacramento really looking healthier than Philadelphia or New Jersey at this point? It certainly wouldn't fit the Kings' M.O. But outside of something like this, I'm having real trouble figuring out what Favors is doing here.

Consider it a pleasant if maddening surprise.
