Dennis Schroder started the season with the Sacramento Kings<\/a>, and the hope was that they would be a competitive team in a loaded Western Conference. That did not happen early, and at the trade deadline, the Kings made the decision to trade Schroder<\/a> and Keon Ellis to the Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a>, and both players are in a better position to compete.<\/p>\n

For Schroder, his time in Kings was not what he expected, and he recently opened up<\/a> about how the organization broke its word.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I have to say one thing: with Sacramento, with Christie, it\u2019s extremely difficult right now,\u201d Schroder said on the Golden Hoops Podcast. \u201cI don\u2019t want to build contact there right now, because the situation was extremely difficult, and I think what they said and what they did simply were not\u2014uh, it just wasn\u2019t the same, and that really, well, what does \u2018hurt\u2019 mean? I\u2019m in a better situation now. But when someone says something, I\u2019m always a fan of making sure we keep it that way. If I tell someone, \u2018Hey, we\u2019re going to do this and this,\u2019 then I don\u2019t suddenly go off to the right, you know? So, you should always keep your word, and unfortunately, the Sacramento Kings<\/a> didn\u2019t do that. And that\u2019s a shame.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course I\u2019m still grateful that they paid me and that they initially believed in the vision, and yeah, that\u2019s why it\u2019s still extremely difficult. But I think after the season, maybe we can sit down and talk about what bothered me, or rather what the situation was, why it is kind of the way it is now.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s uncertain what the Kings told Schroder, but it possibly could have been about his role on the team. In the 40 games that he played with the team, he only started in 14 of them, which may have rubbed him the wrong way, especially if they told him that he would start before the season.<\/p>\n
