Sacramento Kings

Priority: Replace Rajon Rondo

This team has all the makings of a potential playoff team. Assuming they lose Rajon Rondo, the Kings have a couple options.

  • Draft Kris Dunn
  • Draft Buddy Hield

With DeMarcus CousinsWillie Cauley-Stein, and Rudy Gay locking down the frontcourt, a very capable Darren Collison will need either a shooter like Hield or a point guard like Dunn. Collision is a coveted player for his ability to play the point guard and shooting guard spots, but will need some help in order to create a solid backcourt in Sacramento.

Already with a good bench, one of these two players is the key to their success. On top of this, somehow, someway the Kings need to figure out how to build proper team chemistry also.

The draft is the their first priority, but secondly this team must instill a sense of trust in newly hired head coach Dave Joerger.
