26. Duje Dukan – Croatia

Duje Dukan signed with the Kings as an undrafted rookie in 2015 and lasted just one season in Sacramento. He averaged far more minutes than any other player this low in our rankings, coming in at a whopping 24 minutes per game. Unfortunately for him, he only appeared in one contest, and shot 2 for 10 from the field.

He was assigned to the Reno Big Horns of the G-League on seven different occasions.

Stats with Kings: 1 game, 24 minutes, 6 points, 4 rebounds

25. Bruno Caboclo – Brazil

I can give a personal account on this one. My wife and I scored some courtside seats for a game at Golden 1 Center in February of 2018, and it happened to be Bruno Caboclo’s Kings debut. He played 18 minutes in that game, nervously tugging at his shorts the entire time while looking lost as the Kings were being blown out by the Timberwolves.

I gave up on the Coboclo project about 3 minutes in. He had a short stint of success in Memphis in 2018-’19, and has actually managed to remain active in the league. He played 27 games this past season for the Grizzlies and Rockets.

Stats with Kings: 10 games, 10.0 minutes per, 2.6 points, 2.1 rebounds

24. Alaa Abdelnaby – Egypt

Alaa Abdelnaby played at Duke University and was selected in the first round of the 1990 NBA Draft by the Portland Trail Blazers. He eventually signed with the Kings in 1994 after stops in Milwaukee and Boston.

Abdelnaby made 51 appearances in a Sacramento uniform and was a serviceable end-of-the-rotation player. He didn’t make it through the entire 1994-’95 season with the Kings, who released him with less than a month left. He signed on with the 76ers, played three games, and retired after the season.

Stats with Kings: 51 games, 9.3 minutes, 5.0 points, 2.1 rebounds

23. Luc Mbah A Moute – Cameroon

Despite his relatively low averages across the board, Luc Mbah a Moute was a starter for most of his career. He was traded to Sacramento from the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for a pair of second round picks, but only lasted nine games in a Kings uniform. He was a starter for five of them, averaging big minutes but putting up small numbers.

The Kings cut ties early on and traded Mbah a Moute to the Timberwolves in exchange for Derrick Williams.

Stats with Kings: 9 games, 21.8 minutes, 4.4 points, 3.0 rebounds
