Rawle Alkins spent two seasons as a small forward at Arizona but he isnât marketing himself as one for the NBA.
He says heâs much more flexible than that.
âIâm telling you thereâs no positions,â Alkins said during a post-workout interview in Sacramento, when asked where he would play in the NBA. âItâs funny â a scout I was talking to at the Combine said I was on his âAll-Jackâ team. At first I didnât know what that meant. He explained to me it was all jack of all trades. Thatâs something I value. Itâs nice to see when people value you the way you value yourself.â
Alkins said the teams heâs spoken with âlove the fact that Iâm labeled as positionlessâ because they can put him wherever needed.
âThe NBA is a fast-paced game,â Alkins said in the interview posted to the Kings' Twitter page. âIf you look at playoff basketball right now â the Houston Rockets and Warriors â thereâs no centers, no really positions on the court. Itâs just fast-paced basketball.â
Alkins is reportedly scheduled to work out for the Suns next week (the Suns typically don't announce workout participants until an hour beforehand).
The Kings, meanwhile, will also take a look at Dusan Ristic on Friday and Allonzo Trier on May 31. Trier is scheduled to work out for Minnesota on Friday.
