It’s no secret that the NBA Draft is a sensitive subject for fans of the Sacramento Kings. However, if their first draft under Monte McNair was any indication of what’s to come for the team, then that may not be the case for much longer.
Tyrese Haliburton, who the Kings selected with No. 12 pick in last year’s draft, had a stellar rookie season, which ended with him getting named to the All-Rookie First Team. The Kings will be hoping to build on their success with a higher draft pick this year, but they won’t know where they’ll be picking in this year’s draft until the NBA Draft Lottery concludes on Tuesday.
Here’s everything you need to know about the 2021 NBA Draft Lottery and where the Kings factor into it:
