The Sacramento Kings enter the 2025–26 NBA season with a roster that’s confusing at best — and a potential fantasy basketball nightmare at worst. Josh Lloyd, host of the Locked On Fantasy Basketball Podcast, breaks down every angle of Sacramento’s fantasy outlook.
Are Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine, and DeMar DeRozan overvalued in drafts? How will the arrival of Dennis Schröder and the emergence of Keegan Murray reshape usage, pace, and production? Josh dives into the Kings’ guard logjam, forward shortage, and the ripple effects across fantasy formats.
🏀 Topics covered:
• Projected starting five and rotation issues
• Sabonis’ fantasy ceiling and floor
• LaVine and DeRozan’s usage clash
• Keegan Murray’s breakout path
• Undervalued sleepers like Keon Ellis
• Why Sacramento’s roster build could tank fantasy value
Make the right call before draft day — and don’t get burned by the Kings’ chaos.
