Our 2016-2017 Season Report Card of the Sacramento Kings series continues today as we take a look at Georgios Papagiannis. Big George was the 13 overall selection in the 2016 NBA Draft and like many rookies did not see much action early in the season.
The DeMarcus Cousins trade was really the turning point in Papagiannis’ season. Before the trade, Georgios Papagiannis played in just four of 58 games and saw a total of 18 minutes on the court. There was just nothing to glean from that because we never saw him the on-court for more than a few minutes in a blowout game.
