The last time a member of the Sacramento Kings won one of the six major postseason awards was Tyreke Evans back in 2010 when he captured the hearts of fans with averages exceeding 20 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds per game during his rookie campaign. Unfortunately, his career only trended downhill from there and the Kings have struggled to get a player back in the national spotlight since.

Most notably, DeMarcus Cousins earned a pair of All-NBA Second Team selections and the Kings even had a string of five picks make the All-Rookie Team during the six-year span of 2016 to 2021.
