The Sacramento Kings announced on Thursday morning that they have waived forward Louis King.

King, 22, was on a two-way contract with Sacramento and G-League affiliate Stockton.

Dating back to the 2021-21 season, King appeared in 16 games for Sacramento and averaged 5.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game on 39-percent shooting from the field and 31-percent shooting from beyond the arc.

After waiving King, Sacramento has an open two-way spot that can be filled as the team looks to gear up for a postseason push.
