The Kings selected guard Kyle Guy, junior sharpshooter for the Champion Virginia Cavaliers. Guy averaged 15.4 points and 4.5 rebounds with a 42% mark from deep and 120 made threes on the year. Guy won the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA Tournament award after he scored 24 points in the Championship win over Texas Tech.
The Kings selected Guy after trading the 47th pick—Michigan freshman forward Iggy Brazdeikis—to the New York Knicks for the 55th pick and our old buddy cash considerations.
The upside for Guy is obvious; he was the primary scorer for the Champion Cavaliers and has a career 42.
