The biggest question surrounding European phenom Sasha Vezenkov was answered in different ways during his introductory press conference Thursday in Sacramento.
How will the 6-foot-9 forward fit in the Kings’ system?
Vezenkov sat next to Kings general manager Monte McNair as the two tried to, in the simplest form, answer the question of the summer.
“You’ve heard me say it before about our goal, going into the offseason and continuing to build on the success that we had last year,” McNair began. “And after watching Sasha play over the years, and getting to see him live and getting to know him, I’m confident he’s going to be a great fit here and help us continue to achieve those goals.
“He’s got incredible shooting, size, IQ, just a winner. EuroLeague MVP, Greek league champion, EuroLeague No. 1 seed and finalist, so he’s had a ton of success on the international stage and we’re excited to see him carry that over to the NBA.”
Of course, it needs to be seen to know for sure, but Vezenkov’s fit solely basketball-wise is close to perfect with Sacramento.
Last season, the Kings ran a historically incredible offense built off pace, moving and cutting. With Domantas Sabonis or De’Aaron Fox at the helm, their non-stop moving schemes allowed for easy buckets in the paint or wide-open shots beyond the arc.
When watching film of Vezenkov with Olympiacos over the last couple of years, especially last season, the Bulgarian big man constantly moved without the ball to find ways to get open. And he would make defenders pay for giving him just the slightest amount of room with the rock in his hand.
