Sacramento Kings

Some will see this as a mistake. They will have valid points. We will disagree with them anyway.

Sure, the Kings should first endeavor to surround De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis with floor spacing.

Neither of them are great shooters, so surrounding them with players who are would be the right way to maximize them. In case you’re new here, the Sacramento Kings don’t always conform to such conventional wisdom.

This team is desperate to make a playoff push. To do that, they’ll need talent. This is another squad that would benefit from using Caris LeVert as a sixth man. He’d dominate the offense in lineups featuring neither Fox nor Sabonis.

Perhaps that’s Caris LeVert’s best role in general. His offensive skills are polished to a point where he should dominate second units. If he’s not a complementary player and not quite a star player, it makes sense to surround him with complementary players in a situation where the talent is lesser.

The Kings feel like as good a team as any to host that experiment.
