What happened: The Sacramento Kings signed Daeqwon Plowden to a two-year, $5.1 million contract. The deal converts Plowden from a two-way player to a standard NBA contract.

Why it matters: The move gives Sacramento continuity and secures Plowden for the upcoming 2026-27 season. His promotion also rewards his production during an expanded role last season.

By the numbers: Plowden averaged 10.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 26.4 minutes across 32 games during the 2025-26 season.

What to watch: Plowden will compete for a rotation role when Sacramento begins training camp.
