Kings Draft Central 2019: Workouts, Rumors, Mock Drafts, and More

The 2019 NBA Draft will take place on Thursday, June 20 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. You can watch the broadcast live on ESPN.

For the first time since 1999, the Kings enter draft season without a first round pick. If you’re wondering why, here’s a brief history lesson:

On July 10, 2015, the Sacramento Kings sent Nik Stauskas, Carl Landry, Jason Thompson, a future first round pick, and the rights to swap first round picks in 2016 and 2017 to the Philadelphia 76ers for 2015 second round draft picks Arturas Gudaitis and Luka Mitrovic.
