When the Kings traded DeMarcus Cousins to the New Orleans Pelicans, nobody could have imagined that two years later the Sacramento Kings would have a better record than the Pelicans, yet here we are with the Kings at 17-15 and the Pelicans at 15-18. Buddy Hield, the primary return for Cousins, has been playing like a star recently and has been one of the best shooters in the entire league. But despite their record, the Pelicans should not be considered pushovers. Anthony Davis remains a top-five talent in the NBA and Jrue Holiday is one of the best two-way guards.
