The Sacramento Kings could land a stud with the 13th pick in the draft.
disappointed many as they fell short of the 2024 playoffs, but on the bright side, the Kings came out of their 46-win season with a lottery pick. The Kings hold the 13th overall pick in the 2024 draft, barring the slim chance of a lottery miracle that moves them into the top five.
While many claim this year's draft class is weak compared to others, the Kings should have no trouble finding a stud in the late lottery.of CBS Sports crafted a mock draft that has Sacramento taking a chance on Tidjane Salaun with the 13th pick. Salaun, 18, is a 6-foot-10 forward out of France who has been jumping up draft boards lately. The young wing has been playing for Cholet Basket in the FIBA Champions League and LNB Pro A, where he averaged 9.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.0 steals through 43 games this season. Many analysts love Salaun's shooting promise, as although he shot just 33% from deep this season, his mechanics are impressive.
Salaun has made 75 3s this season, often pulling up off the dribble or running off movement, which is intriguing to scouts at 6'10. He's a highly competitive defender who shows versatility covering ground all over the floor with his long wingspan and outstanding intensity level.As one of the youngest prospects in the class, Salaun is certainly a project player for any team that takes a chance on him in June.
For Sacramento's sake, they would be better off selecting a player that fits their timeline. In Boone's mock, the next two picks after Sacramento's selection at 13 areWith nearly two months until the 2024 NBA Draft, many prospects will be sliding up and down draft boards, but Sacramento will likely be in a great position at pick 13.
