"The Sydney Kings continue to build their roster ahead of their historic 30th Anniversary Season, today announcing that Tom Wilson has signed a 'one plus one' deal (the club holding the option on a second year)."

Not the best but not that poor considering who he's replacing. Almost like for like since both are very offensively oriented players. What Wilson brings with size & speed is offset by his inexperience.
Probably a bit cheaper than Cadee so the Kings can comply with that 5 players non-stacking rule. Of the 2 restricted & 3 locals roster spots left, the Kings have to find another 3 'budget' players so the scenario is they can only sign 1 stud local & 1 stud import.
Don't be surprised if they have to sign guys like Mitch Young, Jarrod Kenny & even entertain the return of Singh to comply with the rules. Still not clear if the new 12th rising star spot will count towards that aggregate limit.

Pouring out a drink to drown your sorrows already?
"Hardly worth a thread for a DP"
He's a fully-contracted player. The Kings post says nothing about him being a DP
He's the GOAT

Tom Wilson will be the most improved player in the NBL next season.
Shame he can't do it in a shitty seabl side. Yet Kings/ Hawks former DP Indianna Faithful had a triple dub the other night.
