Their owner chose Stauskus over Payton.
Collison at the 1, Stauskas at the 2 and McLemore as the 6th man. Or vice versa with Stauskas/McLemore.
That's what I'm saying. Apparently the owner knows best nowadays.
McLemore can't score/create well enough for himself/others to be the 6th man, tbh.
I just think Payton has much more upside than Stauskus going forward plus they could have picked up Payne in the process.

So you're saying that we have minutes for Burke and Exum but they don't have enough minutes for Mclemore and Stauskus?
Newsflash Burks > Mclemore
I'm saying you're comparing apples & oranges.

He can't score create well enough... Doesn't defend... Not a great spot up shooter... Why does he have more upside?
I wouldn't give up on him... Also wouldn't bank on him. Stauskas will be really good... Much better prospect IMO.
I will agree that the kings have no idea what they are doing. Haven't had a clear direction in years.
Who are you talking about here? Payton? Have you seen him play?

If by apples & oranges you mean that Sacramento has more minutes available at the 2 then we do.
Elfrid Payton is a candidate to win ROY, honestly. Carter-Williams esque type of player.
Yup. I think he's a cross between Patrick Beverly (defensive intensity) and MCW (passing, finish at the rim).
And Sactown should have known this, tbh. They've had him in for workouts, etc.
