2018 NBA Re-Draft, Picks 1-5

#2 Sacramento Kings: Luka Doncic

2018 NBA Rookie Photo Shoot

Oh Kings! you did it again. They had the ability to draft a franchise-changing talent, but they let it slip through their hands, again. A team that has always had an affinity towards drafting European talent chose to let the most accomplished Euro in the history of the league, slide through their hands. But, well they at least get it right in this Sportskeeda re-draft.

Marvin Bagley is not only a questionable fit with the rest of the Sacramento team, he also has the lowest ceiling when it comes to the other top five picks, in accordance with me. He isn't only a suspect three-point shooter, but he barely has a decent right hand shot. Due to which he has featured sparsely in a surprisingly good Kings team, who have chosen to go with an older Nemanja Bjelica, due to his ability to stretch the floor.

Doncic, on the other hand, has been as good as advertised. He is currently averaging 19.1 points on 45 percent with 6.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists. His turnover rate has come under scrutiny but that is going to get better as he gets accustomed to NBA basketball. What sets Doncic apart from the rest of the rookies is that he has the inane ability to read and react to what the defense gives him and that for a player his age is unheard of.
