For an idea of how important Garrett Temple is to the Kings, look where his locker is at Golden 1 Center.
Last season, DeMarcus Cousins was to the left of Temple. This year, it's De'Aaron Fox to his right.
"I don't think they do this on accident," Temple said. "... I think they did it on purpose."
Temple is in some ways the conscience of the Kings: a player trusted to help guide both their past franchise cornerstone (Cousins) and one they believe can be the future (Fox).
