The Sacramento Kings aren't the only team making hard cuts leading into the NBA's regular season. The Brooklyn Nets recently waived Dariq Whitehead, who had been with the organization since 2023. Now, the Kings should be looking at adding the young forward to their roster.
Whitehead was drafted by the Nets in 2023, going 22nd overall in the first round. He played two seasons in Brooklyn, though he was assigned to their G League, the Long Island Nets, more than a few times. Ultimately, he only played a total of 22 NBA games over two seasons.
