Kings Aggressively Trying To Trade For First-Round Pick

[RealGM Wiretap]

The Sacramento Kings do not currently hold a pick in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft. Sacramento sent their pick to the Atlanta Hawks, as a result of the Kevin Huerter trade in 2022. That lack of a pick has the Kings looking to get into the first round.

NBA Draft analyst Rafael Barlowe said in an appearance on Sactown Sports 1140 that the Kings have been "aggressive" in trying to acquire a first-round pick. One player Sacramento may be targeting is guard Jase Richardson of Michigan State.

Richardson is the son of former NBA star Jason Richardson. In his lone season with the Spartans, the 6-foot-3 guard averaged 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists. Richardson also put up 49/41/84 shooting splits as a freshman at Michigan State.

Jase may be good but why do we want an undersized SG, that's mainly a scorer? Should be going after a PG. Jakucionis is kinda a combo too, but is a pretty good playmaker and has size. Gotta improve the length & athleticism...our average team height is 6'4" and wonder why we're getting smoked lol
Our Rasheer Fleming could be good next to Domas, supposed to be a Siakam type. Are Anjali & Lamb coming up with these ideas? lol
