This may catapult Doncic's career. Seriously.
is Atlanta really any better than Sacramento
I'll copy this from a previous post and will continue to as long as people have the nerve to ask this question:
Does anyone know the last time the Kings had a winning record? 05-06.
Here are the picks from then til now:
06: 19th Quincy Douby
07: 10th Spencer Hawes
08: 12th Jason Thompson
09: 4th Tyreke Evans
10: 5th Demarcus Cousins
11: 7th Bismack Bioyombo
12: 5th: Thomas Robinson
13: 7th: Ben McLemore
14: 8th: Nik Stauskas
15: 6th: Willie Cauley Stein
16: 13th Georgios Papagiannis
17: 5th: De'Aaron Fox
In 12 years, the only pick that they made that has any actual talent is DeMarcus Cousins. Count your lucky stars that you get the 2nd pick, take Doncic and pray that he doesn't leave you in 4 years.
Added for Moranis: the Hawks have had 8 winning record seasons in that time span. Since becoming the Sacramento Kings in 1985, they've had a total of 8 winning seasons. That's over the course of 33 years.
