Tyus Edney is your 44th Greatest Sacramento King of All-Time. A 2nd round draft pick in 1995, Edney helped take the Kings to the playoffs as a rookie starting point guard. Also in yesterday's vote, I included a poll asking if I should continue this series until the lockout ends... More yes than no votes were tabulated so there you have it. I might take a break at 50 for a week or so, but we will soldier on. May God have mercy on our souls.
HOW TO VOTE:
Voting is done via the comment section. To vote, simply add a comment with the name of the person you would like to vote for. Feel free to explain your vote if you wish, or not. If you are a lurker who doesn't post much, this could be a good opportunity to create an account (it is super easy and completely free) and start interacting with the community. Voting ends at midnight (Pacific Time) so get your comments in before then. Any votes after that will not count. You also may not switch your vote after you have voted.
When voting feel free to use any criteria you wish in your evaluation, but only take into account a player's career as a Sacramento King. If a player you want to vote for isn't on the poll, feel free to mention him in the comments to be added.
