Option #5: Nene Hilario

Nene Hilario has always been a consistent player who can really kill a team in the post if no one is able to guard him. He’s a tough player who is the ultimate role player for an NBA team. He’s currently 34 years of age and might want to go to a contending team, but the Kings should consider him.

Fit w/ Sacramento:

Nene is a veteran who can really help the Kings’ young bigs learn how to defend players in the post a lot better than they already do. He’s also one of the greatest comeback stories in NBA history; diagnosed with cancer at only 25 years old, he fought through it, got back on the court, and was better than ever.
