I think the Sacramento Kings could hit a homerun here by taking Kristaps Porzingis. Like most drafts, nearly no one knows who the international players are (except for Fran Fraschilla). But Porzingis has the potential upside to be a great international player for years to come.
The Kings do need to have a scoring power forward. Derrick Williams was decent down the stretch. But establishing a good frontcourt with Boogie Cousins, and Rudy Gay should be a huge priority for the Kings. It may take time for Porzingis to adjust to the NBA game and the physicality, but once he does he’s going to provide an excellent scoring punch.
