With their no. 34 pick in the second round of the 2017 NBA Draft, the Sacramento Kings selected PG Frank Mason III out of Kansas.

Mason III, who finished four years with the Jayhawks, finished his career by averaging 20.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.2 assists while shooting 50 percent from the field, 47.1 percent from beyond the arc and 79.4 percent on his free-throw attempts.

Mason III was the second point guard taken by the Kings, behind Kentucky's De'Aaron Fox.
