Adam Copeland is joined by Athletic NBA Sacramento Kings writer Jason Jones to break down what the Kings need to do to finally make the playoffs. The Kings decided not to match the Hawks offer sheet for Bogdan Bogdanovic and that seems like the right move according to Jason. Now the Kings need to figure out if they need to keep the roster they have and try to make the playoffs or blow things up and start it over with their young core. Vlade made some mistakes with the Kings, now new GM Monte McNair must try to clean things up and figure out the right path for the Kings. His first big move was giving De'Aaron Fox a big 5 year extension. Jason breaks down if he thinks it was the right move to give Fox the big extension. Jason talks about the future of Buddy Heald and Harrison Barnes with the team and if it makes more sense to try to deal them and start things over with Fox, Bagley and their young core. And they talk a little wrestling and Jason's favorite wrestler Edge, who has the same name as Adam.
