Sacramento Kings

Record: 10-11

Grade: B

Through the first quarter of the season, the Sacramento Kings have been…quite fun. They’re better than expected and they have a real player – and potential star – in De’Aaron Fox. As long as Fox is running things in Sacramento, this is a team that is going to continue to improve.

I don’t think the playoffs is realistic for this team this season, but they’re showing more and more promise with every passing week. Heck, they’ve even been fun to watch – something that we really haven’t said about this team since DeMarcus Cousins left.

The Kings are much improved, and hopefully this is something that lasts for more than the first quarter of the year.
