The Sacramento Kings won’t get their pick next season, making this year’s selection especially important. As luck would have it, this year’s lottery is among the most talented in recent memory, giving them a chance to add an elite talent to build around in the coming years.
Mohamed Bamba, the lanky center from Texas, might be their best bet.
There are plenty of valid criticisms when it comes to Bamba’s game. He’s still limited offensively and needs to add strength, which is especially evident on defense. Compared to some of the other prospects in his range, he might be a bit of a project.
