No. 8 Sacramento Kings: PG Dennis Smith Jr.
School: NC State
Position: Point Guard
Size: 6'3"/195 pounds
Class: Freshman
2016-17 Stats: 18.1 ppg, 6.2 apg, 4.6 rpg, .455 FG%, .359 3P%
Outlook: Things are looking up for the Kings. If all goes as planned, Sacramento will have two picks in the top ten. They freed themselves from a contentious situation with Boogie Cousins who was not leading their team to wins on the court. Additionally, they will not have to pay up to keep him as they would have felt obligated to offer him a mega-extension. Dennis Smith is the best player on the board at this point in the draft. If Smith is surrounded by the right coaching staff, he has the potential to be a bright, young point guard. The downside is fans saw what happened when that was not the case at the end of the NC State season. (Getty)
