We're at this stage crossroads where a bunch of draft pundits love the Davion pick while Kings fans absolutely hate it and it's hilarious.

For some reason kings fans think we have a backcourt already. But that been said a lot

Yeah well the pundits don’t actually watch the kings

 

[kingdivac]

Jaden Springer, Sharife Cooper, Jared Butler is still on the board.

Wasn't Butler with Mitchell? -- I thought he outshined Mitchell in the final - Butler looked the best player on the court....course that's 1 game.

At this point nobody should watch the Kings.

[captain bill]

CP3 6’
Donovan Mitchell 6’1
Trae 6’1
Conley 6’1
Dame 6’2
Kyrie 6’2
Steph 6’3
Murray 6’3

he’s on the smaller end but let’s not pretend he’s IT.

Also neither here nor there but I doubt dame is actually 6’2 as listed

The fit issue is real. The saving grace is that Kuminga and Wagner were off the board.

And the bad new is the Warriors are likely still a contender, got a major dropper at SF/PF and picked up another long SG/SF to boot. How the F do they both have more upside and present than the Kings? It hurts. It hurts bad. I thought them picking Draymond back in the day hurt but man oh man.

Love the coach interview!

Do they though?

 

[SacTownKid]

Do they though?

Yes, they do. Haliburton and Mitchell are solid but are you building a team around either? Wiseman/Kuminga is legit upside.

 

[kingdivac]

Also Kings fans; Dont spend a lottery pick on a backup defensive role player

If he's the best defender in the draft, I'm gonna wait to hold judgement a bit....just like Bagley. Of course that was at #2 in the draft.

Are you building a team around Wiseman at this point? Warriors fans hate his guts (he's their Bagley)

Unless there is a wing or big they like here, I’d trade for a future pick.

Livers maybe?

We'll see how it works out, their situation isn't the best but in terms of upside, yes, athletic wings and bigs are probably the way to go. They had nothing to lose and both could obviously and I'm no fan of Wiseman but the upside is there. Here's to hoping the Dubs let it die on the vine and never get back past up the 5th spot in the playoff rankings!

Kessler Edwards still available here along with Ayo

 

[Capt. Factorial]

At least one of Boston and Bleijenbergh will be there at #39. Probably Kessler Edwards, too. And then there's Davion's teammate Jared Butler!

Just going to forfeit the pick when they sleep through their alarm.

Thor and Dosunmo gone

 

[ESP47]

Herb and Todd gone. KF.com's 2nd round darlings.

Have nothing else to live for at this point.

 

[Section 101]

LOL ESPN draft tracker for the Kings has PG as need for pick 39.

He's 6.0 bare foot (DX) and is considered 6'1.25 with shoes.

Incoming Alex Antenoukoumpo

ooohhh

I like this pick a lot too. I had him ranked 19th overall. He should certainly help placate the fans who wanted more size on the roster.
