Here’s ESPN.com reporting on the Sacramento Kings, who have found themselves a new analytics guy:
The Sacramento Kings have come to terms with Roland Beech to hire the longtime NBA sabermetrician to head up their analytics department, according to league sources.
Sources told ESPN.com that Beech is poised to join the Kings as their vice president of analytics under Vlade Divac, Sacramento’s new head of basketball operations.
Beech will thus fill a void created after another of the league’s foremost analytics experts — Dean Oliver — recently left the organization.
