JIMMER FREDETTE RUMORS
Kings' Fredette reflects on rookie season
Entering the NBA for the Sacramento Kings' Jimmer Fredette must have been daunting.
He was greatly heralded in college (BYU) and had a huge following ("Jimmer-mania") that it may have been ranked up there with "Beatle-mania."

Is Jimmermania over? Fredette no King in NBA yet
Far away from the NBA's brightest lights out here in California's Central Valley, Jimmer Fredette can walk into a restaurant or grocery store and barely turn a head.

Basketball stats website calls Jimmer Fredette ‘Jimmy’
Basketball genius and hardcore Kings fan Tom Ziller was spouting some insight on Jimmer Fredette Sunday morning when he pointed out something pretty interesting: The outstanding basketball statistical site 82games.com for some reason calls Jimmer Fredette “Jimmy.” We have no idea if this was done on purpose out of defiance, or just accidentally, but it’s pretty...

Fredette's namesake wins racing debut
Jimmer, the horse, is having a better rookie season than Jimmer, the basketball player.

Kings coaches say Jimmer Fredette is not that fast and athletic, should be more selfish
Jimmer Fredette was known in college for his pure scoring ability. He single-handedly turned BYU into a national championship contender by having an uncanny ability to hit shots from anywhere on the floor. Defenders who covered Jimmer inside the three-point line quickly realized they had to come out past it. When defenders came out past the arc, Fredette knocked down shots from beyond...
