The Sacramento Kings shocked their fans when they took Davion Mitchell with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Not only was Mitchell one of the oldest players in the draft at 22 years old, but he was a guard and the Kings used their 2020 lottery pick to select a guard, Tyrese Haliburton.
With Haliburton now in Indiana and the Kings in need of a 3-and-D player next to De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis, it would make more sense for Sacramento to select a guard in the 2022 NBA Draft and the latest mock drafts project that they will.
