Best modern 10-man Kings rotation 

Post#1 » by durantbird » Thu Aug 7, 2025 6:05 pm

Pick ten players, you can use their best season wearing Kings uniform (at least 50% of the season playing for the Kings).
Assemble your best 10-man rotation best suited in your eyes to compete in modern-game environment.

My pick:
Oscar Robertson / DeAaron Fox
Mitch Richmond / Mike Bibby
Doug Christie / Metta World Peace
Peja Stojakovic / Jerry Lucas
Vlade Divac / Chris Webber

Potential candidates:
DeMarcus Cousins, Tyrese Haliburton, Hedo Turkoglu, Brad Miller, Tiny Archibald, Harrison Barnes, Keon Ellis, Domantas Sabonis, Otis Birdsong, Kevin Martin, Eddie Johnson

Especially in an offensive system designed around Oscar's very ball dominant and very effective playmaking as well as scoring, Nate seems to be the better choice despite his defensive issues. Might go Birdsong over Bibby as the backup at the two as well if I felt his J would translate to 3 point shooting for size and defense next to Tiny though Bibby was the better player.
