Catch the NBA Draft on TSN Thursday starting at 7pm et/4pm pt. The Kings have had so much turmoil and turnover since the season ended that focusing on the future has been an ever-present process of acceleration. The uncertainty that clouded the franchise for so long hit its peak May 21, when Keith Smart represented the Kings at the draft lottery at the request of the Maloof family. Smart has since been fired as coach and replaced by Mike Malone. Pete DAlessandro took over as general manager for Geoff Petrie last week. And new owner Vivek Ranadive has wiped away just about every memory of the Maloofs inside Sacramentos suburban arena as part of the franchises "new era." The Kings can begin adding to that next chapter on the court come Thursday night, when they have the seventh and 36th overall picks in the draft. "I see real potential in this draft," DAlessandro said. The first-time general manager has relied heavily on the scouting he did in Denvers front office and leaned heavily on Malone -- whom DAlessandro jokingly called "a seasoned veteran with two weeks experience" at his introductory news conference -- to decide how that information might translate to the coachs style and Sacramentos needs. DAlessandro also brought over Mike Bratz from the Nuggets to be his assistant general manager. As for filling out the rest of his front office, that will have to wait. "The beauty of this business is you have a network," DAlessandro said. "Its like any business -- you have people that you trust. Even without having a staff, I have the people that I trust in this industry that are excellent." This years draft will shed some insight on what directtion DAlessandro and Malone want to take the team.dddddddddddd After making eight straight playoff appearances, the Kings have failed to make the post-season the last seven years and have the second-worst record in the NBA during that span. The franchise had become more frugal each year under the Maloofs, putting pressure on Petrie to find success in the draft, where talent can come cheap. The Kings seemed to channel Petries past success when they took Tyreke Evans with the fourth pick in 2009. Evans turned into the NBA Rookie of the Year, though the combo guard has been saddled with knee injuries and inconsistency ever since, and now hes set to become a restricted free agent. Drafting DeMarcus Cousins fifth in 2010 had the same risk then as signing him to a long-term extension does now: hes a talented centre who could blossom into one of the leagues best big men, but hes also a player who has shown a lack of discipline and defence, getting suspended three times this past season -- twice by the NBA, and once by the team. While getting point guard Isaiah Thomas with the 60th and final pick two years ago might be considered a steal at that slot, the rest of Sacramentos recent draft history has been forgettable. Jimmer Fredette, the former BYU sensation selected 10th overall in 2011, has yet to live up to the hype. Thomas Robinson was such a disappointment after been taken fifth that the Kings traded him to Houston midseason. That missed pick was magnified even more because Damian Lillard, the NBA Rookie of the Year, was drafted by Portland one spot after Robinson. But as with everything else in Sacramento now, the revamped franchise is looking forward and not back. "I think this team is more of a clean canvas," DAlessandro said. "We have some strong pieces in there, but theres a lot we can do to get it in the right direction." ' ' '
