The Sacramento Kings are exploring the option of signing center Precious Achiuwa, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer. The team aims to address its size disadvantage with this potential move.
General manager Scott Perry is reportedly working on bolstering the Kings' roster. Achiuwa, 26, is a veteran big man known for his rebounding skills throughout his five-year NBA career. He last played for the New York Knicks during the 2024-25 season.

Currently, Sacramento ranks last in the NBA for rebounds per game (37.5). The team is also dealing with the absence of starting forward Keegan Murray, who is recovering from wrist surgery.
Signing Achiuwa would require a roster adjustment, as the Kings already have 15 players under standard contracts. Russell Westbrook’s contract for the season is not fully guaranteed, but he has performed well early on with the team.
