Kings agree to 3-year, $19 million deal with Marco Belinelli
The Kings are trying to add some much-needed shooting.
After clearing cap space to sign Wesley Matthews, the Kings settled for another shooter, adding to a roster in desperate need of some scoring. The former Spur should be a good addition to one of the worst benches in the league. Belinelli shot 37 percent from outside last season and 43 percent the year before, which immediately makes him the best marksman on the Kings’ roster.
The 28-year-old Belinelli played for four teams in six years before finding his place in San Antonio, where he enjoyed the best two seasons of his career, winning a title in the process. His porous defense prevents him from being a starter in the league, but his offensive talent is undeniable and makes him a good fit in Sacramento.
Last season Belinelli averaged 9.2 points and 2.5 rebounds in 22.4 minutes per game for the Spurs.
