10.  Sacramento Kings – Moses Moody, Wing, Arkansas

Just to be clear, no one selected with this pick is going to save the Kings. It simply isn’t going to happen. Sacramento is in the all-feared purgatory, finishing in the 10-14 range each of the past three seasons.

I struggled with who the Kings would select here, but the best overall player on the board was Moody, and there is a spot in Sacramento which he could play.

Moody is just an overall, very solid wing prospect. He’s not the most athletic, but can find ways to impact the game even without scoring. He’s a high-IQ player with defensive impact in addition to leading an Arkansas team in scoring this past season.
