Having signed two veterans in the backcourt in a row, has the Kings competitiveness in the No. 1 position been significantly improved?

According to previous news, German backcourt star Dennis Schroder reached an agreement with the Sacramento Kings, who received a three-year contract with a total amount of US$45 million. According to NBA reporter Ary, since the free market started, after weeks of continuous dialogue, former MVP Russell Westbrook is expected to join the Kings.

In the NBA regular season last season, Schroeder made a total of 75 times for the Brooklyn Nets, Golden State Warriors and Detroit Pistons, with averaging 28.1 minutes per game, averaging 13.1 points, 2.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.9 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 40.6%, a three-point shooting percentage of 34.2%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 83.8%. In the playoffs, Schroeder played 6 games for the Pistons, averaging 27.4 minutes per game, averaging 12.5 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 49.1%, a three-point shooting percentage of 47.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 81.3%.

In the NBA regular season last season, Westbrook made a total of 75 appearances for the Denver Nuggets in 82 games, averaging 27.9 minutes per game, averaging 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 3.2 turnovers and 2.5 fouls. His shooting percentage was 44.9%, three-point shooting percentage was 32.3%, and free throw shooting percentage was 66.1%. In the playoffs, Westbrook made a total of 14 appearances, averaging 24.1 minutes per game, averaging 11.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.1 blocks. He also had 2.3 turnovers and 3.2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 39.1%, three-point shooting percentage was 31.7%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 70%.

Judging from the situation last season, the point guard may be the weakest position of the Kings. The Kings used a large number of players in the No. 1 position last season, including De 'Aaron Fox, Jordan McLaughlin, Devin Carter, Malik Monk, Markelle Fultz, Keon Ellis and even Zach LaVine. Some of them proved to be embarrassing, some were sent off mid-season, and others proved to be more suitable for appearing in other positions. In fact, after sending Fox away, the King was looking for a good solution, but never did it. This summer, the Kings also look to be looking to strengthen this position. Even with limited space, they have signed two experienced veterans, Schroeder and Westbrook in succession. I wonder if the Kings' strength in the No. 1 position will be significantly improved next season.
