Royal Reading: 2 Kings crack The Athletic’s top 125 NBA players list

The Sacramento Kings roster may look a whole lot different over the next few years with new general manager Monte McNair at the helm. Sacramento has some talented pieces in place and two of them made The Athletic’s list of the top 125 NBA players.

Seth Partnow is releasing his annual rankings by tier and has two Kings players in No. 5, which means he has them listed between Nos. 80 and 125. Partnow has Buddy Hield and restricted free agent Bogdan Bogdanovic in Tier 5.

Partnow takes a number of factors into consideration when putting together his rankings, including age, contract, analytics and insight from people in the NBA world.
