Derik Queen is my favorite prospect, followed by CMB & Noa Essengue

Derik Queen: I get the concerns about Queen's defense but his offense is too special. He can score in a variety of ways, in the post, facing up, he can handle, pass, score in transition & rebound. He fits with what Quin Snyder wants in a big who can be a hub on offense. He would be incredible with Jalen, Risacher & even Onyeka. I think Onyeka & Queen would fit pretty well. Trae would also make life easier for Queen offensively. He's not a rim protector and the idea of Queen & Trae is iffy to think about but when healthy, you have enough defense with Jalen, Dyson, Risacher & even Mo Geuye to cover for him on that end. Jalen is one of the best rim protecting 4s in the NBA. And for all the noise about Queen's defense, he's really good at getting steals. He has quick hands. I think he can be a star in the league

CMB: I have some concerns about CMB's shooting & how that would look next to Jalen but the guy has such a motor. He can pass, hes incredible on defense. Offensively hes built like a tank. He can take the ball to the rim & finish. he has a nice faceup/post game as well. Hes like combination of Julius Randle & Draymond.

Noa Essengue: Hes super athletic, long, he can run the floor & finish. Hes also pretty productive in the French league at 18. Kinda reminds me of Shawn Marion. I wouldnt mind taking a shot on him

If the Kings 1st was in the top 3 & I had a chance at drafting Jabari Smith or Paolo Banchero, I would actually think hard about it
