NBA Mock Draft 2.0: Magic hopes to find its superstar; Jabari Smith hype
7. Sacramento Kings – Jalen Duren, C, Memphis
The Sacramento Kings have some big questions to answer when it comes to their backcourt but there’s no question that this team could use some help in the frontcourt – especially if they decide to move on from Marvin Bagley at the trade deadline.
One potential option is Jalen Duren, a 6-foot-11 center out of Memphis. Duren is athletic and one of the best rim-protectors in college basketball – he’s averaging nearly three blocks per game so far this season.
He may take a bit of time to develop on the offensive end, but he’s absolutely a talent that should be taken in the top 10.
