#13: Sacramento Kings select Ja’Kobe Walter 

It appears as though Malik Monk (a free-agent possibility for the Pistons) will be taking his services elsewhere this summer, so the Kings get his replacement in Ja’Kobe Walter. 

Walter looks the part of an NBA scorer and should be able to provide buckets off the bench right away along with some competition for Kevin Huerter. 

The Kings could go for a big man here, but it would be more of a reach, so instead they take the safer option and go for the sharpshooting wing.
