Vlade Divac Out as Sacramento Kings GM – Blazers Edge

In other news, the Chicago Bulls fired Head Coach Jim Boylen today. Former Trail Blazers Ime Udoka and David Vanterpool are supposedly on the list of prospects for the now-open position.

Divacs tenure has actually been besieged by problems, including bad draft choices (handing down Luca Doncic in favor of Marvin Bagley in 2018 being a prime example) and repeated failure to make the playoffs. The Kings finished the year with a 31-41 record, their 14th straight season below.500.

Sacramento Kings General Manager Vlade Divac has stepped down from his position after 5 years as the lead executive for the organization. Joe Dumars will take the role on an interim basis as the Kings look for Divacs replacement. Sam Amick tweeted the news previously today.
