According to ESPN’s 2015 #NBArank, the Sacramento Kings have some pretty bad players. Sacramento has four players in the dreaded 300-400 range and only two in the top 100.

Not even 2014 All-Star and self-proclaimed MVP candidate DeMarcus Cousins could crack the top 10!

So without further adieu, lets take a look at where they rank, who ranked just below and just above them, and whether or not the ranking is justified.

390. Quincy Acy

389. Alonzo Gee

391.   Russ Smith

This one is pretty silly. Quincy Acy is coming off his best year as a pro and played for an atrocious Knicks team. Acy is a solid defender and has one of the league’s most intimidating beards. You go ahead and tell him where he’s ranked. See what happens. 

354. Caron Butler

353. Brandon Rush

355 Cameron Payne

If we are talking about strictly on the court rankings, this one might be fair. But Caron Butler is an absolute godsend for any team that needs serious locker room leadership. Plus his nickname is “TuffJuice.” Nobody named TuffJuice should ever be ranked this low. For shame, ESPN.

325. Seth Curry:

324. R.J. Hunter

326.  Andre Roberson

Seth Curry should be ranked in the top 200 based on family lineage alone. Have some respect.

315. James Anderson

314. Delon Wright

316.   Alexis Ajinca

James Anderson wasn’t even in the league last year so I think being ranked 315 isn’t that bad. He seems like he can make some shots and defends now and again, but I don’t trust any player that the Spurs gave up on after one year.

242. Omri Casspi

241. Nik Stauskas

243.   Isaiah Canaan

Umm…are you kidding me? Omri Casspi was arguably the Kings’ best bench player last year and seemed to really excel under George Karl. You have the nerve to actually rank Nik “I couldn’t throw a rock in the ocean last year” Stauskas ahead of him? Unforgivable.

223. Rajon Rondo

222. Marreese Speights

224.  Marvin Williams

If Rondo can’t return to 80 percent of his former Celtics glory version, than I think this ranking is fair. If he can, then I think he is being highly underrated. Either way, it’s just weird to see him amongst the Marreese Speights’ and Marvin Williams’ of the world. Also, I had to look at Speights’ first name 10 times before I actually believed he spelled it like that.

175. Willie Cauley-Stein

174. Josh McRoberts

176.   Gerald Henderson

Trill has a bunch of potential so I think this ranking is pretty good. With being that said, if he isn’t as effective as the guy ranked 174, I will be kind of bummed out. Get outta here, McBob.

167. Ben McLemore (III)

166. Mike Dunleavy

168.   Mirza Teletovic

The way McLemore has looked in the preseason, I think if he ended up being the 167^th best player in the league this year it would be quite the blessing. Looks lost most of the time when he’s on the court despite showing flashes of brilliance. If this kid could put it together, it would be such a come-up for Sacramento. I like his hair this year though…..

164. Marco Belinelli

163. Kosta Koufos

165.   Corey Brewer

Oh I guess you didn’t know that George Karl was about to unleash the Italian beast. Well he is. If there was a 7^th man of the year, I think he’d win it this year. But there’s not. They should make that a thing.

163. Kosta Koufos

162. Patty Mills

164.   Marco Belinelli

You know how people acted like Timofey Mozgov was God’s or LeBron’s (same thing really) gift to the 5-spot towards the end of last season? You know how Mozgov at #78 is ranked 85 spots ahead of Kosta Koufos? Well did you know that Koufos is actually a better player? Now you do. 

145. Darren Collison

144. C.J. McCollum

146.    Arron Afflalo

This is going to look really silly when Darren Collison wins 6^th man of the year this season. He has been the Kings’ best player in training camp and preseason and it looks like he’s going to be perfect for Karl’s system.

70. Rudy Gay

69. Danilo Gallinari

71.  Nicolas Batum

Rudy Gay was ranked #51 last year and then he proceeded to have the best season of his career but somehow he dropped 19 spots. What in the world is that? Did so many people get better this year that Gay slipped? C’mon ESPN. Also, Danilo Gallinari at #69? He’ll be hurt by the time I’m done typing this sentence.

12. DeMarcus Cousins

11.  John Wall

13. LaMarcus Aldridge

So the most dominant big man of the small-ball era isn’t even a top-10 NBA player this year? Ya are shady. What if the Kings make the playoffs this season and Cousins averages 25 and 12? Are you still going to rank him #12? I don’t think so playboy.
