Kings exercise option on Cauley-Stein

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) – The Sacramento Kings have exercised their third-year option on center Willie Cauley-Stein.

General manager Vlade Divac announced the move Friday.

Cauley-Stein is entering his second season with the Kings after being drafted sixth overall in the 2015 draft. Cauley-Stein averaged 7.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game last season when he was named to the all-rookie second team.
