There is no one person to blame for the Sacramento Kings' slow start, as it's a systemic failure across the franchise. Despite that, Zach LaVine has played incredibly well. With the Kings' renewed focus on defense, it's become increasingly apparent that he doesn't fit, a fact he's well aware of.
While the current Kings' roster has a lot of talented players, they just don't balance each other out. Much has been made of the imbalance towards offense over defense, which is absolutely true and the core of their problems. But there is so much more to it than that.
