The Sacramento Kings are in a prime position to add one of the top players in the 2017 NBA draft with the fifth overall pick.

There could be a chance that the Kings grab a point guard with the selection given the high amount of backcourt talent in this year's class. Despite that, veteran point guard Darren Collison has recently told Ailene Voisin of the Sacramento Bee that he would entertain an opportunity to come back to the organization next season.

“For a while, I didn’t know what they wanted to do,” he said this week. “But after talking to Vlade late in the season, I got a much better sense. I think management has a definite plan in place and I think what he’s doing is smart. They have a goal they want to reach. They want a good locker room, because it starts from there. They have a good coach in Dave Joerger, and the young players, when I look at what they did late in the season, you realize these are guys you can play with and eventually win with. That’s my gut feeling. And then after the (Cousins) trade, when we got away from playing two bigs and played faster, I feel like my skills fit better. So, no, I wouldn’t mind coming back at all.”

Collison is set to become an unrestricted free agent after completing the final season of his three-year, $15 million deal with Sacramento. He is coming off one of his most productive seasons averaging 13.2 points on a career-high 41.7 percent from 3-point range with 4.6 assists and 1.0 steals per game.

The Sacramento Bee is also reporting that Collison could command a three-to-five-year deal with an annual base salary around $8 million per season. This comes after an offseason where he dealt with an off-the-court matter after pleading guilty to misdemeanor domestic battery that resulted in an eight-game suspension last season.

That said, Kings general manager Vlade Divac has made it clear he has some significant interest in grabbing a point guard speaking highly of UCLA‘s Lonzo Ball and Kentucky‘s De'Aaron Fox.

Ultimately, this all depends on how much interest the Kings have in bringing back Collison next season and beyond.
