Arron Afflalo has agreed to a two-year, $25M deal with the Kings, league source tells @TheVertical.

Finally a deal for Sacramento that doesn't seem like a disaster.

Not really what they need but it's not a bad signing.

They need a better option at the 2 guard. I think McLemore's going to be traded.

One of a select few financially-reasonable signings I've seen in the last few days.

Money wise (compared to what other players have gotten) it isn't a bad deal. I felt like they needed an upgrade at the SG position last year, and Afflalo might be the answer. Interesting to see if they will retain Rondo now.

I still like Mclemore

Yes. I think Afflalo would be a great fit next to Rondo, better than anyone paired with him since Ray Allen. It would be good for both the Kings and Rondo to retain him at this point.

I think Afflalo has declined so much that McLemore is the better player now.

Waste of money for Sacramento.

Reportedly they won't resign Rondo.

At point guard, the Kings don’t intend to re-sign Rajon Rondo, according to league sources, leaving them with just Darren Collison and rookie Isaiah Cousins at the position.

No wonder the Kings organization is a mess. I think Rondo will end up in Philly or Chicago now.

Rumor has it that they're negotiating with Indy regarding a Rudy Gay-Monta Elis swap, after which Ellis would presumably switch back to the point.

I feel bad for Cousins. He probably can't wait until his contract expires.
