For the Sacramento Kings to make this proposed rebuild work, they'll have to draft incredibly well. What they should be looking for is a young defender who can hit the ground running like Caleb Wilson, an elite high school player who made the transition to college ball incredibly quickly.

Wilson is a power forward playing for the University of North Carolina. His tenacious attitude and fast-paced defense made him a fast favorite among Tar Heels fans. The constant dunking doesn't hurt. That's probably why he's currently sitting at number four on FanSided's 2026 NBA Draft Big Board.
