There were a lot of problems that the Sacramento Kings faced this season, but one of the more highlighted concerns was their lack of production at the shooting guard position.
Players that played this position throughout the season were mainly Ben McLemore, Marco Belinelli, James Anderson, and Seth Curry.
When the season was all said and done, Curry was the most productive out of the bunch, which is not a good thing despite Seth’s surprising efficency late in the year.

This offseason the Kings will need to make a decision on what they feel will upgrade the two-guard spot going forward. An ideal shooting guard for the Kings is someone that can make jump-shots, especially three-pointers, at a consistent rate but also play solid defense on the other end.
Based on the current roster, McLemore has the most potential to be that ideal player for the Kings, but throughout his three-year tenure with Sacramento he has made just gradual and inconsistent progress so far.
On the other hand, Curry showed the most promise this previous season to be that guy, but is reported to decline his player option on his contract in the near future, so the Kings will have to battle other teams for Seth’s services next season.
So Kings fans, we want to hear from you. What should the Sacramento Kings front office do with the two-guard position entering this offseason?
Should they stay intact with the players they have now and hope they improve next season? Do they trade any of their two-guards in exchange for another one better fit with the team in return? Or do they take a player from the draft (*cough* Kris Dunn) or free agency (*cough* Courtney Lee)?
