As Ranadive continues to consider candidates to replace basketball president Geoff Petrie, whose contract expires at the end of the month, Jerry Reynolds said Wednesday he will step down as director of player personnel in anticipation of a new front-office team. "Clearly, with the new GM coming on board, they'll want their own staff," said Reynolds, who has been with the team since its move from Kansas City to Sacramento. Reynolds said he wants to continue in his role as analyst for the Kings broadcasts. "I would love to continue to do television," he said. "Obviously, that's not my decision." Sacramento Bee

Last year the Kings weren't able to bring in some of the top prospects because they didn't want to play in Sacramento. This year, Geoff Petrie is trying to bring in the best talent he can for new coach Michael Malone, but agents know Petrie won't be drafting for the Kings and some are reluctant to send their clients to Sacramento for workouts. Word was Michigan point guard Trey Burke was scheduled to workout for the Kings this weekend but backed out. Other top prospects are in no hurry to workout when the ultimate decision maker hasn't been hired. Sulia

The Sacramento Kings general manager search will continue on Thursday, when they are expected to interview former Indiana Pacers general manager David Morway. According to a person with knowledge of the search, Morway will join the list of candidates still in the running for the job left vacant when new owner Vivek Ranadive decided to part ways with longtime general manager Geoff Petrie. The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the search. USA Today Sports

The front-office changes are continuing for the Sacramento Kings, as Jerry Reynolds announced Wednesday he will step down from his role as director of player personnel. "With new ownership, a new coach coming in, getting a new staff ... the new general manager will want his new people," Reynolds said from his office at the Kings headquarters. "I certainly do not want to be in the way at all." Reynolds said the decision is his. He has not been contacted by the new ownership group, and with his contract expiring in September, Reynolds said now is the right time to step aside. KCRA.com

The USA Basketball chairman said Cousins had "some growing up to do" when he was a member of a select team practicing against USA Basketball's Olympic team last summer. Cousins took offense to those comments and asked Colangelo about them. After much debate among USA Basketball executives, a source said, Cousins, 22, was extended an invite to take part in the minicamp with a chance to land a spot on Team USA. "You bury the past and go forward," Colangelo said. "He's invited and he's definitely on the list. New year, new summer, new opportunity." Yahoo! Sports

That includes center DeMarcus Cousins, who has been involved in trade rumors for three seasons largely because of run-ins with coaches, teammates and staff, and questions about his attitude. "We all know on any given night he's the most talented big man in the NBA," Malone said. " … You just don't get rid of those guys. He could be and should be the cornerstone of this franchise for years to come. That's my hope." Sacramento Bee
