14) Sacramento Kings (1-5)

Last month: 12

The Sacramento Kings currently have nine players averaging at least nine points per game. Nobody on the team is scoring more than De’Aaron Fox’s 12.7 PPG. One could look at that and say the Kings have the ultimate balanced attack.

I tend to look at it and say they don’t have anyone good enough to run the show offensively.

George Hill may be a great tutor for Fox, but after a career (half) year with the Jazz last season, he’s scoring less than 10 points per game and the Kings offense is generating just 97 points per 100 possessions when he’s been on the court.
