This series examines the Sacramento Kings players’ most recent season giving them a performance grade.  Today we will take a look at Anthony Tolliver.

Anthony Tolliver joined the Sacramento Kings last offseason on a contract of 2 years for $16 million.  At the time, I chronicled if Tolliver was worth that money here and it turns out he was worth every penny even he never plays another minute on the court for the Kings.

Tolliver proved himself to be a contributor both on and off the court.  He played well any time Sacramento put him on the floor, and he was a presence in the locker room mentoring the young players.

Let us now take a closer look at Tolliver’s on-court exploits on both ends of the floor to examine and explain the performance grades he received.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: For this series, the players on the Kings will be graded on a curve, meaning that the grades handed out to each player reflect more about their ranking on the team rather than their actual performance output.
