Kings principal owner Vivek Ranadive was pleased with the team’s first free-agent signing since his group took over in May.
It also helps that Ranadive knows Carl Landry well. He signed a four-year, $26 million contract Monday.
Ranadive saw Landry up close as a minority owner with the Warriors last season and spoke highly of Landry as a player and person.
“(Landry) is symbolic of the new era of the Kings – Kings 3.0,” Ranadive said. “Excellence on the court, excellence off the court. To me, the power forward position is a 21st-century position. It’s a big man with skills, and Carl is really the personification of everything that is good about our sport.”
