[Sigh]
ESPN made a splash Thursday morning when Jonathan Givony reported that Vlade Divac wasn’t in Serbia for the EuroLeague Finals as originally thought. Within hours the report has already been shown to be a non-story. With that said, let’s get into the details.
The Kings were initially supposed to have GM Vlade Divac in Belgrade, according to a Sacramento front-office executive at the combine, but Divac never made it, instead electing to attend his son’s college graduation in California. People I trust say the Kings’ front office has been expressing significant skepticism about Doncic’s NBA prospects all year in private conversations, long before they moved up in the draft.
