The Sacramento Kings agreed to a deal with veteran free-agent center Mason Plumlee, his agents confirmed Wednesday to ESPN's Shams Charania.
Plumlee appeared in 20 combined games last season between the Charlotte Hornets and San Antonio Spurs. Charlotte traded him to Oklahoma City in February, but he was promptly waived by the Thunder before eventually landing in San Antonio.
The 36-year-old gives the 1-10 Kings an experienced option in a frontcourt that's been derailed by injuries. Precious Achiuwa left Tuesday's loss to the Orlando Magic with a leg contusion, and last year's No. 42 pick, Maxime Raynaud, has yet to play in his sophomore NBA campaign after suffering a partially dislocated kneecap in preseason.
Three-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis was also questionable for Tuesday's matchup with left knee soreness. Sabonis started the game and played 23:33 but finished with zero points.
Plumlee owns career averages of 7.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.3 assists over 13 seasons. However, he hasn't played more than 20 minutes per game since 2022-23.
