The Sacramento Kings, somehow have a pulse on the NBA Draft. You think with a this dysfunction they would all wake up today and go “Isn’t there a Draft today?” yes Vivek, yes Vlade, the NBA Draft is tonight. And you lot better get somebody good. Otherwise you’ll be back at square 1.
According to Sam Amick of USA TODAY, the Kings are looking to Draft either Mario Hezonja or Emmanuel Mudiay.
On Kings’ draft front, sounding like it’s Mario Hezonja and Emmanuel Mudiay on top of their list. If they stay at No. 6 of course.

Now both of these prospects have a possibility of going before the Kings even get on the clock. The better have a bigger list because if these two are gone before its their time. Whoowee the Kings are screwed!
With all this trade talk it is hard to gauge what they actually need. If DeMarcus is somehow still on the roster by the 2015-16 season starts. I’d say they need a guard, whether it be point or shooting guard. Personally I prefer Mudiay. Hezonja has a reputation of being a loose cannon. Even though Hezonja is more offensively gifted, his defensive ability and attitude is suspect. Mudiay is a much safer pick in my opinion. But hey, if anybody could screw up a safe bet, it’s the Sacramento Kings.
