2022-23 final Philadelphia 76ers player grades: Louis King

The 2022-23 season ended for the Philadelphia 76ers with a Game 7 loss to the Boston Celtics in the second round of the playoffs, so it’s time to reflect on the season.

The Sixers finished 54-28 and were third in the Eastern Conference behind the Milwaukee Bucks and the Celtics in the standings. Considering the 12-12 start, the season was a success despite the sour and familiar ending.

Now it’s time to grade each player on the roster for what he did throughout the season. In this installment, Sixers Wire looks at Louis King who only played one game for Philadelphia as he was mostly in the G League all season and on a two-way deal.

20.0 points

King's 2022-23 G League stats (regular season)

16.5 points

5.1 assists

4.6 rebounds

1.5 steals

46.4% field goal percentage

King's contract

  • 2023-24 season: NONE

Thoughts

King played 32 games for the Delaware Blue Coats in the 2022-23 season and he teamed up with Jaden Springer and Mac McClung to lead the Blue Coats to a title. He was a guy Delaware could count on for easy buckets and somebody who can knock down 3s to space the floor.

King played in three playoff games and averaged 15.0 points and shot 42.1% from the floor. He played well next to McClung and Springer and helped Delaware have success.

Entering free agency, King will likely be looking to find an opportunity to play in the NBA and get some real minutes to develop in the league.

Final grade: B
