Monte McNair has options for Thursday’s NBA Draft. The Kings’ general manager has been leaving no stone unturned in his search for the right players to fill out his roster and it’s almost decision time.

Sacramento has a major need for more length and athleticism, especially at the forward position, and the draft is the first opportunity to try to address some of this issue, even if it’s a player for the future.
