Where They Can Go

There are lots of questions in store for the Sacramento Kings. Bogdan Bogdanovic went down recently with hamstring tightness and a further depleted Kings team got run over by the Brooklyn Nets on Friday. However, with their current effort and playbook, the Kings have the opportunity to steal any game they play. Once Bogdanovic, Bagley, and Fox get worked back into the lineup, Walton will have many decisions to make regarding the rotations (do Holmes and Bjelica, two of the best Kings players this season, go back to the bench?).

Next. No, The Kings Are Not Better Without De'Aaron Fox. dark

It’s entirely possible there is are further phases to this already wild year to go. However, if the current roster can keep playing like a true team, the previously 0-5 Kings might not be trending backward at all by the end of the season.

Through all of this adversity, the Kings are one game out of the eighth seed as of November 23rd. They have three games left on their East Coast road trip against the Wizards, Celtics, and 76ers. Stay tuned.
