It sounds like Willie Cauley-Stein is ready to get out of Sacramento and on to better things.
At least that is what his agent is saying.
The agent for center Willie Cauley-Stein has encouraged the Sacramento Kings to allow his client to become an unrestricted free agent.
“I’m hopeful they will not even give Willie his qualifying offer,” Roger Montgomery of Roc Nation Sports told the Sacramento Bee.
A former Kentucky star, Cauley-Stein has played all four of his NBA seasons in Sacramento since it took him sixth overall in the 2015 draft. With his rookie contract expiring this month, he would become a restricted free agent — giving Sacramento the ability to match offers from other teams — if the Kings first extend a $6,265,631 million qualifying offer by June 30.
“I really think Willie needs a fresh start,” Montgomery told the Bee. “Based on how things have gone for him there in Sacramento, I just think it’s time for Willie to move on and we’d really like him to move on.”
