Sacramento Kings – 2.8% Chance of Winning Lottery

The Sacramento Kings do not want to win the lottery. Well, at the very least, they’re the only team that wouldn’t benefit from it.

Thanks to a stupid trade with Philadelphia, should the Kings finish higher than the 76ers this year, Philly could swap picks with the Kings. Winning the lottery would be the epitome of where this franchise is currently.

Sure, they’d still get Philly’s pick, which can’t be worse than seventh, but winning the lottery would have the league laughing in their faces yet again. After giving Boogie Cousins away for nearly nothing, Sacramento doesn’t need this.
