The Sacramento Kings traded a future first-round pick to get Nique Clifford in the 2025 NBA Draft, and he already looks like one of the best players in this class. Celtics reporter Jack Simone even went as far as to say Clifford could be a multiple-time All-Star after watching him live in Vegas. Getting that type of player with the 24th overall pick is an absolute steal. The 6’5 wing could be a two-way force, and Kings fans should be excited.
Clifford averaged 15.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 28.1 minutes per game in Las Vegas.
