My exclusive one-on-one interview with Providence (@PCFriarsmbb) guard Devin Carter (@kingcarter2225), who was selected 13th overall by the @SacramentoKings in the 2024 #NBA draft
“(Sacramento) was my number 1. This was the team I wanted to go to”… pic.twitter.com/JniUOzRXjQ

Think Derrick White 2.0.
A tremendous pick for the Kings.
Literally everyone loves this for the Kings except for Kings fans.

Devin Carter and his mom sat by us several games at Vegas SL when his dad was an assistant with the Kings. 👑😀

Love @Lakers getting @Vol_Hoops Dalton KNECHT - he will be a scorer - teams will regret letting him slide to 17 - @jj_redick will love his ability to put points on the board - also @SacramentoKings fans will appreciate the toughness & versatility of DEVIN CARTER .

The more I hear, the more this is definitely as much a Mike Brown pick. Good call Mike. Got your D-O-G.

Every talent evaluator I trust loves the Carter pick for Sacramento... I think that should mean something https://t.co/nRChgwabKx

You know those gender reveal parties where the dad gets all disappointed because he’s having a 4th girl?
— Brett W. Huff (@bretthuff22) June 27, 2024
That’s Kings fans and guards. Y’all look silly.

Carter averaged more rebounds than Clingan, Sarr, and Filipowski. https://t.co/JAUZgw97AZ

Many Kings fans just want the excitement of some moves and lineup shuffling, as well as our squad making more sense on paper. I'm sure the time will come once friday gets here and free agency is officially underway

Everything I'm reading/seeing about this guy has me pretty hyped, nuts to fit, we were at 13.... BPA all the way!
I think at least one of Huerter or Davion is gone this offseason, and we might even see Carter play some 3 in certain matchups with his elite length/motor/defense/rebounding.... dude will get minutes.
This team desperately needed an infusion of dawg

Knecht went to the 7akers? He's going to be a bust then. I give them a grade of F for the draft.

If mainstream KINGS fans don’t like something, it’s probably the right move.
I vividly remember being at ARCO in 1996 for the draft party and 90%+ of KINGS fans booed the Peja Stojakovic pick, all pretty much wanting John Wallace. More recently lots of fans panned the Keegan Murray selection, while championing Jaden Ivey.
The average KINGS fan on social media sure ain’t the brightest of the bunch. Lots of passionate fans, for sure. But beyond that….

Monte McNair: "We had a lot of possibilities (with the 13th pick), as we always do, but ultimately excited to pick Devin Carter."
— Brenden Nunes (@BrendenNunesNBA) June 27, 2024
He said Carter is "frankly, just a winner."
I just don't care whatsoever about the "logjam". Trade them
There's 4 guys I consider absolutely 100% locked in: Fox/Domas/Monk/Keegan. I'm pretty sure Keon is too, but he's got to prove his 21 game starting stint wasn't a fluke. Everyone else just doesn't matter.
I'm a huge believe in Carter's talent and how much dudes like him matter to winning playoff basketball. That's all that matters as a pick.

Monte McNair: "If you watch the playoffs this year, there were a lot of Devin Carter's out there. I'll put it that way."

Monte McNair: "We understand the importance of roster balance... we're at the beginning of the offseason. We'll be able to continue to shape the roster."

"The draft is not about right now. The draft is about adding somebody to our team who can be here a long time."
my man. *chefs kiss*
We're lucky this dude is in charge. If Kings twitter were in charge, we'd have to endure Kyle Kuzma for 3 years.

Did Monte have a presser?
To be clear, this is not true per-minute.

Monte McNair said he thinks Devin Carter will be able to "play up" with his versatility.
— Brenden Nunes (@BrendenNunesNBA) June 27, 2024
When I say Carter is a pest on defense, this UConn play is exactly what I mean. Dude somehow came over the screen and blocked the shot from behind when any other player just gives up and looks for a rebound.
