Brian Goorjian to use NBA coaching stint with the New York Knicks in a bid to finalise the Kings' NBL26 roster
Sydney Kings coach Brian Goorjian will use an NBA Summer League coaching stint with the New York Knicks to finalise the Kings' roster for NBL26. CODE Sports can reveal Goorjian has agreed to join the Knicks as an assistant coach for a five-day camp leading up to the Summer League. He will also be on the team's bench during the annual pre-season tournament in Las Vegas from July 10 to 20. Joining forces with New York – a franchise coming off its first Eastern Conference Finals appearance in 20 years – will give Goorjian a front-row seat to the club's talent pool as he attempts to lock in Sydney's final roster spot. The Kings are keen to sign a back-up big man to add more size to the team's front-court alongside Xavier Cooks and Keli Leaupepe. Sydney CEO Chris Pongrass has already publicly stated the club's desire to lure a 'six-foot-eleven guy with length and size'. The Kings had the fourth-best average rebound numbers in the competition last season, but were seventh in rebounding differential, a crucial part that cost them in their biggest games. Goorjian is desperate to improve this statistic in NBL26 via the help of an experienced big man who can impact the game at both ends of the floor. The legendary mentor's NBA Summer League stint with the Knicks is the perfect chance to survey the best emerging talent in world basketball. The Summer League has proven to be a successful pathway for NBL players to attract interest in recent seasons. Former Melbourne United centre Ariel Hukporti signed a two-year contract with New York following an impressive Summer League stint for the club. Hukporti, who was selected by the Knicks with the 54th pick in the 2024 NBA draft, averaged 8.4 points and 7.2 rebounds in five games for the Knicks at last year's pre-season tournament. Another ex-United star in Jack White signed a two-way deal with the Denver Nuggets in 2022 after a standout Summer League stint with the club. White went on to play 17 NBA games for the Nuggets during the franchise's run to the 2022/23 championship. A cast of NBL players are again expected to feature in this year's NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. While no players are officially locked into stints, the likes of Davo Hickey, Tyrell Harrison and Hyunjung Lee have all indicated a desire to play in the pre-season event. In other news, Pongrass has decided to step down from his role as CEO following seven successful seasons. Pongrass played a vital role in the club's consecutive championships in NBL22 and NBL23 as the team's leading recruiter. He will continue in his current role with Sydney for the next six months – assisting the club's ownership to find a suitable replacement. It's understood Pongrass doesn't have a new job as yet, but he should have no shortage of interest given his NBL success and previous NBA experience as the director of basketball operations at the Memphis Grizzlies.

‘You keep signing everyone': Roosters star gives it to Gus Gould
Roosters and NSW star Angus Crichton has taken a cheeky dig at Phil Gould after the Bulldogs supremo pointed out the exodus of senior players from the Sydney glamour club. The Roosters are 12th on the ladder and have been competitive in what is a transitional year for the club following the departures of Luke Keary, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Joey Manu, Joseph Sua'ali'i, Terrell May and Sitili Tupouniua. FOX LEAGUE, available on Kayo Sports, is the only place to watch every game of every round in the 2025 NRL Telstra Premiership, LIVE with no ad-breaks during play. New to Kayo? Get your first month for just $1. Limited-time offer. They have also been without halfback Sam Walker so far this season as he recovers from an ACL injury, while Brandon Smith has joined the Rabbitohs mid-season. Appearing on Nine's 100% Footy on Monday night, Gould asked Crichton about the 'drain' of players from the Chooks, and the Roosters star had a cheeky retort. Gould: 'Angus, last year — Joey Manu, Sua'ali'i, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Luke Keary, Brendon Smith, Sam Walker, Sitili Tupouniua — it's a big drain on experienced talent isn't it?' Crichton jokingly replied: 'I know, somehow we still don't have any cash. And you guys keep signing everyone, so I don't know what's going on here. There needs to be an investigation.' Gould looked momentarily stunned before co-host Paul Gallen chimed in, telling Crichton: 'You're more than welcome here any time you want.' The Oracle wrote on X: 'How good was this! Angus Crichton giving it to Gus Gould. And didn't he have a valid point?' Watch the Gould vs Crichton exchange in the video above The Bulldogs have recruited Lachlan Galvin, Leo Thompson, Stephen Crichton, Matt Burton and Viliame Kikau in recent seasons during Gould's tenure as Canterbury's general manager of football Bulldogs. A secret document has revealed Canterbury have the salary cap profile of a premiership winning team, with no players earning more than a million dollars per season, modelling the even spread of talent that saw Penrith win four premierships in a row. Meanwhile the Roosters have impressed this season with a fairly inexperienced side, handing debuts to Robert Toia, Hugo Savala, Salesi Foketi, Taylor Losalu, Blake Steep, Xavier Va'a and Benaiah Ioielu, while getting more games into Sandon Smith. 'We've invested heavily in our young boys and they've been doing a great job for us,' Crichton added. 'Blake Steep has been huge for us. Salesi Foketi, and now seeing the young hooker Benaiah (Ioelu) come through, he's really crafty. 'Robert Toia, he's been great. I'm so happy he got his opportunity in Origin, he's just a baller and goes out there and kills it.' Crichton also praised the Roosters' young halves Sandon Smith and Hugo Savala, who have been more than capable playmakers in the absence of Sam Walker. 'Hugo's kick is what sort of has unlocked our team a bit,' the forward said. 'Being able to kick long and get into those grinds in games. If you play simple and kick to corners, that's halfway to you winning the game.' The departure of several senior players has the Roosters well and truly in the mix to sign Daly Cherry-Evans for next season after the Manly skipper said he wouldn't be at the Sea Eagles beyond this year. 'I don't know, you guys probably know more than me, I haven't heard anything,' Crichton said when asked about the DCE rumours. 'Obviously he's a great player and adds value wherever he goes. I'd just be disappointed if we lose any of our young guys that are doing such a great job for us. 'Sandon and Hugo have been huge for us, hopefully we can make sure everyone can stay. 'The bones of a good strong team are there and putting Sammy (Walker) in will definitely help boost that. He scores tries out of nowhere, points just flow off him. He's got the best short kick I've ever seen.' After a narrow 26-24 loss to the Raiders last week, the Roosters have the bye this week before taking on Newastle in round 15.
