Sacramento Kings
(29-53, 4th in Pacific Division, 13th in Western
Conference, No Playoffs)
Last season the Kings were not a team to be envied, while their
in state rivals the Warriors were on their way to history and a NBA
Championship. The Kings were looking like a dysfunctional family, with Cousins
having such a vocal outcry against the coaching staff. So the management went
out and fired the HC Mike Malone and hired veteran coach George Karl to see if
he could get the job done and they ended the season with turmoil between coach
and star and a interesting look headed into the draft as a lot of experts had
the big man being traded. Not only did they not trade Cousins they surprised
the NBA world by drafting this man…
R1(6) F/C Willie
Cauley-Stein (Kentucky Wildcats, 7’1” 240lbs): It seemed like a blessing in
disguise that the Kings had this big man fall into their lap. With all of his
skill and ability not to mention potential he was set to go as high as 3 in
most mock drafts. But in the real world he fell and the Kings were able to get
find themselves a big man to pair with Cousins and make for a twin towers
effect in the Cali state capitol. Will Stein be the savior the Kings need to be
relevant only time will tell. But for now things are looking up in Sacramento…
