4) Malachi Richardson

Considering that Richardson is a rookie and that the Kings currently have five shooting guards on their roster, it looks like the former Syracuse baller will see limited playing time this season.

Richardson has the potential to be the Kings’ future premier two-guard, but the franchise is looking to win now and probably won’t throw Malachi into the fire just yet.

Richardson still needs to develop, and there is the possibility that he will spend some time this season in the D-League with the Reno Bighorns.
