Dalembert accepting his role
Samuel Dalembert was not happy initially when he was moved to the back up behind rookie DeMarcus Cousins, but now he is fine with his role. "I accept my role now, and I see what it is," Dalembert told The Sacramento Bee. "I don't know when I'm going to play or not, but I just get ready so when they do play me I'm ready to go, because I don't want to have the excuse that I'm not ready." Kings head coach Paul Westphal says Dalembert's minutes are dictated by the way Cousins is playing and defensive matchups. "That's sort of (Dalembert's) lot in life right now, too, and I know that's frustrating," Westphal said. "He's handling it as well as can be expected, I think." -Jason Jones
