Shams Charania of RealGM reported the following: Free agent forward Quincy Acy has reached agreement on a two-year deal with the Sacramento Kings, league sources told RealGM. Acy’s deal to return to
Andre Iguodala wrapped up the most incredible year of his career exactly a month ago when he helped the Golden State Warriors capture a championship for the first time in 40 years over the Cleveland Cavaliers and took the Finals MVP trophy in the process.
