Kings' Jordan Ford: With Sacramento in Summer League
Rotowire
Ford (hip) suited up for the Kings in games Saturday and Sunday in the California Classic Summer League, totaling 39 points, six assists, six rebounds and three steals between wins over the Lakers and Heat.
While playing under a two-way deal with Sacramento in 2023-24, Ford made just six appearances at the NBA level and was sidelined for the G League Stockton Kings' final game of the season due to a hip injury. He looks to be back to full health while playing for the Kings in the Summer League, but the 26-year-old guard isn't currently under contract heading into the 2024-25 season. The Kings declined his $1.87 million qualifying offer June 29, making Ford an unrestricted free agent.

Kings' Jordan Ford: Deemed questionable for Thursday
Rotowire
Ford is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans with right hip soreness.
With the G League's Stockton Kings having wrapped up their season Sunday with a loss to the Oklahoma City Blue in the Western Conference Finals of the G League playoff, Ford will be with Sacramento for the remainder of the season due to his standing as a two-way player. However, because he missed Sunday's G League game with the hip injury, Ford won't be rejoining the Kings at full health. Even if he's cleared to play Thursday, Ford is unlikely to be included in head coach Mike Brown's rotation.
