In the short term, adding Kabengele makes sense for a Kings roster that will be without starting power forward Marvin Bagley III for an indefinite period of time due to a fractured left hand. Kabengele should provide some depth. He may see more playing time with his new team even when Bagley III returns.

The Clippers had little use for Kabengele, with Marcus Morris Sr., Nicolas Batum, Serge Ibaka and Ivica Zubac all seeing regular minutes at the 4 and 5 spots. So, they moved him to Sacramento along with some cash and will receive the better of the teams' second-round picks in the '22 draft.

Perhaps keeper leaguers may want to take a flier on Kabengele, who is still young enough to become a rotation regular in Sacramento. Otherwise, take a wait-and-see approach with him.
