Kings GM Vlade Divac to Step Down; Joe Dumars to Assume Role

Vlade Divac has stepped down as the Kings' general manager, the team announced Friday.

"It has been an honor and a privilege to serve as the General Manager for the Kings," Divac said in a statement. "I want to thank Vivek for the opportunity and recognize all of the incredible colleagues who I had the great pleasure of working with during my tenure. Sacramento and the Kings will always hold a special place in my heart and I wish them all the best moving forward."

Divac joined the franchise in March 2015 as the team's vice president of basketball and franchise operations, and was later named the team's GM that August.
