Sabonis expressed his surprise that Sacramento managed to re-sign Malik Monk, especially considering the financial constraints the team faced in retaining their valuable sixth man.
He noted that the Kings had limited resources, making it a challenge to bring Monk back into the fold. Despite these hurdles, Sabonis was impressed with how the Kings handled the offseason, stating that their moves surpassed his expectations.
He was particularly pleased with the addition of DeMar DeRozan, which he sees as a significant boost to the team’s overall strength and potential for the upcoming season. Overall, Sabonis believes that the Kings not only met but exceeded the goals he had envisioned for the offseason.
“Definitely [exceeded my expectations]. He’s a very smart player, has been in the league forever, and has done so much, I’m excited to learn from him and pick his brain and I hope everyone else is and everyone gets better overall.”
