1 – Sacramento Kings select Cade Cunningham

In this outcome, the Sacramento Kings win the Cade Cunningham sweepstakes and earn the right to select the possible superstar. Will Cade be enough to reverse the curse and break the Kings’ dry spell?

On paper, he sure is a great fit. Cunningham can slide into just about any organization and earn a starter spot. However, his presence as a third ball-handler next to De’Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton is intriguing.

Cunnigham is big enough to play on the wing despite being a primary distributor at heart. The tandem of Fox, Haliburton, and Cunnigham gives the Kings’ a versatile perimeter attack filled with guys who can create for themselves and others.

Cunnigham is bound to have an exciting rookie year regardless of where he ends up. Nonetheless, Sacramento is a pretty fun spot for him to land.
