Tyreke Evans

It doesn’t make sense to re-sign Tyreke Evans this offseason. The Kings are currently rebuilding for the future and have a lot of young two-guards on their roster. So adding Evans to the mix would just create a logjam at the position.

Personnel is not the only reason bringing back Evans would be a mistake either. Although Evans was solid when he played for the Kings this season, he does tend to play iso-ball a little too much which can cause the offense for Sacramento to stall at times.

It was nice to turn back the clock and see Tyreke back in the purple and white, but the Kings should not try to re-sign him for next season.
