Why The Sacramento Kings Do The Deal
This is a lot for the Kings to give up. Anunoby would have to be worth it.
He is. Make no mistake. Anunoby is the best player in this deal. As much promise as Murray and Mitchell have shown, that’s not debatable.
In fact, Anunoby is one of the very best 3-and-D wings in the entire league. If he has the additional playmaking chops to merit his desire for a larger role, he’ll be even more valuable.
That defensive acumen will be especially valuable to the Kings. This is a team that can outscore anybody on any given night, but they’re lacking in terms of preventing points.
