There is also a psychological component that James might not have considered, with Monte not playing games and trading down to get Murray.
Keegan walks in with the assurance and confidence and fire with "the kings want me" + "no one believes in me" + "i wanna repay the team" and i believe those components added to Keegan's game.
Also, Keegan started the year struggling. Imagine the difference it makes to your confidence as a young man and player with "the kings wanted me" vs "the kings traded down for me"?

Nobody believes in me, because I got drafted 5th overall instead of 4th? It’s not that deep. If Monte could of realistically traded back and still gotten Keegan, he would have.

Keegan’s the better player. Even coming out of college. I said it from the beginning. 6’8 wing that can do everything, ya give me that guy.

[@JustinQuarles]

Keegan will end up as a top 2 or 3 player out of the class 10 years from now

I’m a Pistons fan from Sac and seeing how everything played out, they way things worked out is what works best for both teams. Ivey can on late and is going to be a great player. He’ll also be a great fit with Cade.

Playoff team yes....but not a 3rd seed

WE NEEDED KEEGAN. HE IS THE PIECE. love you ham. But thats unequivocally the right draft pick

You got to the playoffs because you had Fox and Sabonis.Then added Monk and Kev. Keegan alone didn’t make this a playoff team. You easily could’ve made the playoffs with Ivey.
