As reported by @MarcJSpearsESPN Rudy Gay plans to opt out and become a FA. No surprise here....I've been forecasting that last 2 months.

According to multiple reports, Rudy Gay to opt out of final year of his contract post Achilles-surgery. No surprise. Wants years, big payday

With Gay opting out, it most likely means his days in a Sacramento Kings uniform are over. The Kings now will need to be in search of a new small forward going forth whether it comes from the NBA Draft or free agency.
