The Kings are hosting a pre-draft workout on Friday featuring Boopie Miller<\/a> (SMU), Nick Boyd<\/a> (Wisconsin), Lamar Wilkerson<\/a> (Indiana), Anthony Roy<\/a> (Oklahoma State), Izaiyah Nelson<\/a> (South Florida) and Ugonna Onyenso<\/a> (Virginia), tweets<\/a> James Ham of The Kings Beat.<\/p>\n

Sacramento controls three picks (Nos. 7, 34 and 45) in the upcoming draft. Big men Onyenso (No. 43) and Nelson (No. 47) are the top-ranked prospects in that group on ESPN\u2019s big board<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s more from around the Pacific:<\/p>\n

After Evan Sidery claimed (via Twitter<\/a>) that the Hornets and Kings discussed a possible trade involving Domantas Sabonis<\/a> during the 2025\/26 season, Ham shot down that rumor (Twitter link<\/a>). \u201cNot accurate,\u201d a league source told Ham. Sabonis, a three-time All-Star center, is owed $94.1MM over the next two seasons.
\nNick Avila of NBC Sports Bay Area<\/a> rounds up seven mock drafts for the lottery picks controlled by the Kings (No. 7) and Warriors (No. 11). Four outlets have Sacramento selecting former Houston Cougars guard Kingston Flemings<\/a>, while only one name appears multiple times (twice) for Golden State: Mexican forward Karim Lopez<\/a>, who spent the last two seasons with the New Zealand Breakers in the National Basketball League.
\nAlthough the Suns currently only control the 47th overall pick in this month\u2019s draft, they have a recent history of moving both up and down, notes Gerald Bourguet of Sports360AZ.com<\/a>. He acknowledges the odds of Phoenix being able to land a first-round pick seem fairly low given the limited assets at the team\u2019s disposal, but Bourguet lists five prospects the Suns should consider if they\u2019re able to move into the first round, including Stanford\u2019s Ebuka Okorie<\/a> and Iowa State\u2019s Joshua Jefferson<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Rory Maher | at June 4, 2026 8:51 pm The Kings are hosting a pre-draft workout on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":752776,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3792],"tags":[18930,7,4672,65460,84881,64359,44086,92461,4056,53476,2435,6,29906,986,477,4055,18397],"class_list":["post-752775","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sacramento-kings","tag-anthony-roy","tag-basketball","tag-domantas-sabonis","tag-ebuka-okorie","tag-izaiyah-nelson","tag-joshua-jefferson","tag-karim-lopez","tag-kevin-miller","tag-kings","tag-kingston-flemings","tag-lamar-wilkerson","tag-nba","tag-nick-boyd","tag-sacramento","tag-sacramento-kings","tag-sacramentokings","tag-ugonna-onyenso"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116695282733690617","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/752775","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=752775"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/752775\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/752776"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=752775"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=752775"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=752775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
