FORWARD Louis King has reportedly been given a couple of opportunities that could see him return to the NBA.
The New Jersey native is said to have had a workout with the Boston Celtics scheduled last month.

King also joined a number of NBA veterans in working out for the Golden State Warriors, per HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto.
The 26-year-old went undrafted in 2019 following an injury-plagued college career at Oregon.
But as a 6-foot-7 forward with a nearly 7-foot-1 wingspan and a solid perimeter shot, King still attracted interest from NBA teams.
He eventually signed a two-way contract with the Detroit Pistons.
“It’s hard to find wings with size that have a skill level,” Pistons executive Gregg Polinsky said back in 2019.
“Louis knows that there’s a lot of work ahead. He came back from some injuries.
“So why nobody picked him? I can’t answer for the league, but we’re really happy to have him.”
The forward spent the next three years with the Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers.
He put on a show in Philly’s last game of the 2022-23 regular season, logging 20 points – while going 4-for-8 for 3 – in addition to four rebounds and two assists in a 29-point win over the Brooklyn Nets.
But King has mostly played in the G League where he averaged 15.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 1.5 steals in 98 appearances.
Notably, he also shot 38.2 percent on 5.4 attempts per night.
Last season, the forward helped the Delaware Blue Coats win their first G League title.
