Wait, did the Sacramento Kings win the draft? National media says so

The Sacramento Kings have long been maligned for miscues in the NBA draft.

From Quincy Douby to Jimmer Fredette to Thomas Robinson, the Sacramento Kings have had its share of misses in recent drafts and have long been at the butt of many draft jokes over the years.

But the Kings’ draft haul on Thursday night could represent a turning point in the franchise’s draft fortunes.

The Kings selected Kentucky point guard De’Aaron Fox at No. 5, North Carolina forward Justin Jackson at No. 15, Duke forward Harry Giles at No. 20 and Kansas point guard Frank Mason III with their second round pick.
