Even with the Sacramento Kings righting the ship after a slow start, a massive organizational change is right on the horizon with De'Aaron Fox likely leaving.

If a team is  somewhere in the middle, it better have a clear direction because floundering around play-in territory is the NBA’s version of purgatory.
