Last year the plan was simple: develop the new guys and get them in as many game-time situations as possible. We are not talking about one or two guys, but the whole bunch of them. To be specific, those with less than four years of NBA experience under their belt. Add a nice sprinkling of veterans in the mix and that is your Sacramento Kings.
The front office promised it would take time to rebuild the team. It is a process. Last year the Kings led the NBA in two categories. The first was minutes played by their bench at 22 minutes a game, and the second was bench points at 44 points per game.
