The Kings have 14 players under contract and one of those players (Hassan Whiteside) does not have a guaranteed contract. So there is still the possibility for more moves. Jeff Teague is held in high regard, but do the Kings have the assets to convince Atlanta to part with Teague, even though they acquired Devin Harris? Not sure the Kings could dump one or two of their wing players in exchange for Teague. Sulia

With questions about his maturity and work ethnic, the last thing Whiteside wanted to be viewed as was lazy. So pain in his knee or not, he planned to play. "I didn't want people to think I was trying to make excuses," Whiteside said. But he admits that was a mistake. "It took a lot of my explosiveness away," Whiteside said. "I mean I could still block shots because that's really just timing. But being more athletic, it took a lot of that away and that's when I knew it was time, I had to get surgery." Sacramento Bee
