The Sacramento Kings have been hiring former players left and right so what could one more hurt right?
With former Kings center Vlade Divac taking over the reigns of the front office this off-season and trying to defuse DeMarcus Cousins trade rumors.
After a failed stint with the Los Angeles Clippers free agent and former Sacramento King Hedo Turkoglu is looking for work, and it was rumored the Kings may look to fill out the rest of their roster with the Turkish forward.
Being told by league sources that there is no truth to Hedo Turkoglu to #Kings rumors

Turkoglu has played 997 games in his NBA career which is a pretty impressive since entering the league in 2000, but it looks like he won’t be playing any games with the Kings.
Since his second stint with the Orlando Magic back in 2011-2012, Turkoglu has been unproductive averaging 3.7 points per game last season was his most successful stint since then.
The only team I can see Turkoglu landing with would be a final roster spot on a contender or an injury filled roster later in the season which seems to be the most realistic at the moment.
The Kings however could look for a reunion in the front office one day as they did offer former King Peja Stojakovic a position in the front office.
Why stop there? The team might as well welcome Turkoglu back to hopefully help improve the depth on the roster, but at this point in time the team has no interest.
