5) Lamar Patterson
Lamar Patterson showed flashes of his potential with the Atlanta Hawks last season, but it will be tough for him to climb the ladder in the rankings.
The Kings currently have two veteran guards (Afflalo and Temple) and two young guards that have high ceilings (McLemore and Richardson). How Patterson fits into the equation is still a mystery.
It’s curious to see what the Kings will do with Patterson this season. Will he be on the opening night roster? Will he spend some time in the D-League? Will he actually get some solid playing time? The next James Anderson? Time will tell…
