? Rumors of a possible buyout for third-year guard Jimmer Fredette surfaced early Tuesday morning. Jimmer is still a member of the Kings franchise as we go to publish, but he will not be in attendance for tonight's game while his representation and the Kings brass work out the specifics of his release. "As a guy for your locker room, as a person, as an all around player, he definitely belongs in the NBA," Kings general manager Pete D'Alessandro said when asked about Fredette during shootaround. "Someone's gonna get someone that will really help their team and we firmly believe that. When we get to that point, whether it's now or at the end of the season, he's gonna be a player in this league."
