Must have been really excited when his agent told him "the Kings want to give you a contract"
A bit puzzled by the need for a Passport...
Yes Dazz, very funny can tell you've had a real crack up at that. Another solid import for the league. Sucks probs no Childress
Stay strong, Dazz. Even Seinfeld gets hecklers.

So will he play PG, or more of an SG?
Has he been brought in to start, or to backup Lisch & Newley?

I would think he's starting at 2, Lisch at the 1, and Newley at the 3. Cadee first off the bench at 1/2.
Daz just stay away from anyones elses topics except the Cats. PLEASE.
Dazz is making the offseason ok... keep fighting the good fight my man.

I reckon he'll fit really well in Gaze's shuffle offence. Multi-skilled and pretty switched. Just a tad undersized for NBA level

They've put together an outstanding team so far. Granted that's due to the open cheque book policy, but they're also bringing in high ethos/winning guys.
If they can nail that finals import slot they'll be tough. I'm taking them and the Breakers at present to make the GF. Early days I know but I love the make up of their teams.

This guy looks like a stud and a perfect fit for this Sydney team, the Klay Thompson comparison looks spot on. Sydney and Melbourne grand final for mine so far, would be great for the league with 2 of the biggest cities head to head.

It's pretty obvious this level of expenditure isn't sustainable, and I'd wager its fair bet Ogden have limited understanding of the Australian Market.
But then again, they are a substantial organisation. They wouldn't make investments on a whim.
Presumably they have a long-term plan, to buy success, then capitalise upon it.
Sydney has infamously bought success in the past, but then imploded. That shouldn't happen here.
We may actually finally get what the league has craved for 30+ years, a sustainable substantial presence in our largest City. That will not only be good for the Kings, but for the league as a whole, and ultimately TV rights, etc.
The other great thing about the "Kings," especially an overpaid, overfed, over-spending Kings, is that its perfect for rivalry.
Early days yet, but if we can get the Kings, MU, and Brissy successful & sustainable, that will pave the way for 2nd teams in Sydney & Melbourne, and could usher in a new age for the NBL.
