He played 66 games last year, and while he missed some time with a hamstring problem, he does not have any residual issues from the Achilles injury.

Chalmers has maintained confidence that he would be back in the NBA for the upcoming season even though he did not secure a contract through the opening blush of free agency this summer.

"I know I'll be on a team next year," Chalmers said, per Gary Bedore of the Kansas City Star during an interview in July. "I'm not worried about that part.ย I am still going, waiting on a contract right now."
