5. SACRAMENTO KINGS
Positive Spin: The Kings saved about $13 million in salaries next season. Nocioni is a warrior and should add some much-needed toughness to a team known for its softness. And Sacramento is the front-runner to win the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft lottery.

MONDAY'S WORST
Jason Thompson, Kings: We honor the impressive rookie big man with expectations -- dropping zero points in a 91-90 loss to the Blazers is beneath the Rider alum who entered the game averaging 12.1 ppg.
