Sacramento Kings TV play-by-play broadcaster and studio analyst Kyle Draper joined Cattles & Ramie Wednesday to talk about the state of the team, how the Phoenix Suns came out as the winner of trade deadline day and more.

Topics discussed include:

  • Thoughts on where the Sacramento Kings stand heading into the NBA All-Star break
  • If the expectation bar has been raised since the season began
  • “The only team that scares me in terms of overtaking the Kings are the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix is about to add one of the top two, three players in the league. They’re only a game behind us right now. That’s the team you got to focus on. Not Dallas, not even the Clippers. I think Phoenix is the biggest threat.”
  • If the Kings have a deep enough bench
  • Is Davion Mitchell contributing enough offensively?
  • How concerning are the Kings’ defensive woes?
  • Once the playoffs come around, the Kings are going to have to beat teams with their offense because of defense deficiencies
