Kings’ Guard Competition not Competitive
It didn’t take long last season to realize Kings point guard Isaiah Thomas had dynamic leadership qualities.
So what happened when the Kings signed veteran point guard Aaron Brooks?
Thomas kept on leading. Brooks didn’t step on any toes upon his arrival, and the Kings added depth at a position they had been looking to solidify for some time.
“There’s a lot of minutes out there,” Brooks said. “And I think the fact that you have somebody you can lean on, point guards who can actually play the position, you can go out there and exert yourself a little bit more. Between us and Jimmer (Fredette) and Tyreke (Evans) sparingly, we’ll get the job done.”
“It don’t matter who it is – I’m a friendly guy,” Brooks said. “I don’t think I’d do anything malicious. I’m a vet. I feel like it’s a long season and you need two good point guards to win, and we plan on winning.”
