Kings played starters full minutes tonight, they won't be playing tomorrow. Why do they have a preseason B2B?

Yeah preseason B2B is weird. But I guess the plan for Kings was never to play the starters against us since we play a regular season game less than week from now.

Obviously they agreed with GSW to play a more competitive game since all available key starters for both teams played 31+ minutes and closed the game as well.
 
I think Hardy might go as far as run the 4 guards + Kessler unit as the first unit. Might want to see more from it.

That would also explain why Kessler isnt sitting this out.

He's sitting anyone established who is older than 26. Walker is a 2nd year guy, that's why he's going to play a little bit.
 
This is Luka Samanic's last game before his contract-guarantee date (10/23). Same with Kris Dunn.

Dunn will earn $2.5M if his contract is fully guaranteed. Samanic will earn $600k with a chance to earn $2M if he sticks past January. I think Dunn is in the clear. I'm not sure about Samanic.

I’m personally good on Samanic. He can be let go.
