Kings' Georgios Papagiannis: Assigned to D-League

Papagiannis was assigned to the D-League's Reno Bighorns on Friday, Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee reports.

Analysis:

Papagiannis will suit up for Reno in their game Friday against the Santa Cruz Warriors, and could be on tap for an extended stay with the D-League club. Even though the Kings traded away their top frontcourt player in DeMarcus Cousins earlier this week, there still doesn't appear to be room in coach Dave Joerger's rotation for the rookie, who remains behind Willie Cauley-Stein, Kosta Koufos and Skal Labissiere on the depth chart at center.
