Sacramento Kings

In the post-Boogie Cousins world, the Sacramento Kings are a barren wasteland devoid of big contracts. Once Rudy Gay and Tyreke Evans (presumably) split town, Sacramento will have a ton of cap space to play with.

The Kings being the Kings means they’ll likely spend a ton on some mid-tier free agents, but even after a spending spree Sacramento could have a lot of cap space yet. Now that the Kings are all-in on a rebuild, they’re a very logical choice to accept a poor contract along with a draft pick.

Sacramento has a lot of promising young players, but none of them are sure-thing All-Stars. Adding more picks — and more shots at those franchise-altering talents — is the best way to kick-start a rebuild. After all, that’s what got the Philadelphia 76ers to their current position atop the potential leaderboards.

Hopefully the Kings don’t expect the, uh, king’s ransom they gave up in the last salary dump that Sacramento was involved in, which resulted in those 76ers getting the first overall pick and Sacramento ending up with fifth overall.
