Where will Kings end up in 2026 draft? 5th or 6th all the way to 9th selection? I sure hope not debating once we know, who to take #9! https://www.kcra.com/article/sacramento-kings-lose-lottery-tiebreaker-could-fall-as-low-as-9th/71079144

Does Philon play defense? His coach says no and this past season horrible on D and questions his leadership. Alabama was forced into having to outscore opponents which they often did as one of top college basketball offences...

Arguably only true, pure point guard, one of the most talented 2-way players in this draft, 19-year-old 6'4" Kingston Flemings. Lots of video/info in this this thread on the college freshman, big-time star in the tough Big 12 conference. And as said before, doesn't hurt that his name is...

I said it little bit tongue and cheek but it is what it is. Here's very cool vid of Fleming (How Good?) and shorter (16 mins) than twice as long (also cool vid) posted by Baja of 19 year old Freshman Big 12 big-time standout point guard.

I totally agree. I'm not totally sold on Acuff or Peterson or any other guard in this draft. They are likely to be fine NBA players, maybe great. But Fleming as a true point guard, talented on so many levels and very coachable exactly what the Kings need. And his name seals the deal for...

Could it happen? Trey Young to Kings in huge trade package going the other way... https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/trade-idea-nowhere-sacramento-kings-121300051.html

Fox moving to Canada? That would be ironic with its high taxes considering one reason wanted out of high state income tax Cali was Texas having no state income tax. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/spurs-could-acquire-224-million-234254622.html

I don't think of of it as negative as much as facing reality. This season could be miserable for a Kings fan - hopefully not!

Surprise!? Kings grade third worst (D+) among 30 NBA teams offseason draft, trades and signings. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/45836861/nba-offseason-grades-2025-26-season-boston-celtics-oklahoma-city-thunder

I might be willing to go up to 5 million for VERY important reason. Lyles arguably only current player on the Kings proven enforcer. Every NBA team needs at least ONE tough hombre who won't back down when needed. Especially true with Kings "soft" reputation.

Yes, yes... oui, oui... Kings got someone who can guard that other Frenchman, knows his game and can trash talk Victor in two languages!

OKC has nice supporting cast to back up their one true star, SGA (or superstar if you like) but Indy has more depth, more overall talent it seems. Besides amazing floor general Haliburton, the experience of Siakam and Turner and the duo of the two N's plus when needed explosiveness of Mathurin...

Not sure this already posted or really needs to be. DMC at it again! :eek: https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/demarcus-cousins-suspended-season-contract-194403569.html

How tall or short is Vivek Ranadive? I heard 5'5."
