We had a great time with the Kings Pulse crew on The Kings Herald Show this week, and if you’re looking for more great draft audio content, you can check out Kings Pulse wherever you listen to podcasts. I’d definitely recommend their latest episode focusing on Moses Moody vs. Franz Wagner, two players the Kings are seriously considering with the 9th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft.

The draft is tomorrow!
And let’s go live to G1C to see the fan reaction of the Kings’ selection –
“With the 9th pick of the 2021 NBA Draft, the Sacramento Kings select Corey Kispert, Forward, Gonzaga University.”
“Who was that player you took at number 9, Monte?”



Imagine with me, a day when we trade Buddy AND Bagley, AND draft Moses Moody.
Gonna’ be a banner weekend street party in Sac!
The guys talking about Sengun possibly being defensively unplayable in the playoffs¦
Get drafted by the Kings¦
Problem solved!!
Trade up to #6 and take Kuminga, im also ok with taking Moody or Davion Mitchell,pass on Franz and Sengun
Have to lover Jerry’s subtle honesty, just adds to the quality of the podcast
Jerry, you are great. Don’t ever change.
You’ve got to love Jerry uncensoring himself more and more as he gets used to the guys and doing the podcast. Really enjoyed it!
Long but enjoyable and a lot of info ! Hope it is Moody and not Wagner !
