The Sacramento Kings got a gem to fill their backup point guard vacancy,
made their big move when they completed a sign and trade for DeMar DeRozan. They followed that up with a rumor-filled draft and excited fans by selecting Devin Carter. Lost in the excitement was the follow-up move on draft night,
With the Kings appearing to be done with major moves, it seems McLaughlin is in line for a pretty significant role at that backup point guard spot. The Kings could have Malik Monk, who averaged 5.1 assists off the bench last season, operate as the backup point guard, but the most logical move seems to be McLaughlin taking Davion Mitchell’s minutes.. McLaughlin’s surface numbers don’t show it, but when he did play, he had a huge impact on the game.
The 3P% is what stands out, but McLaughlin made his biggest impact on the other side of the ball. He averaged 3.8 deflections per 36 minutes, tied for 11th most in the NBA. Mclaughlin is a player who continues to get better year in and year out, as shown by his career Net Ratings:He had a great role in Minnesota and clearly made the Timberwolves better. He appears to have a clear role here in Sacramento, now the only question is will he have the same impact? All the numbers are pointing to yes.
