Nique Clifford

Clifford went undrafted in 2025 and earned his Kings contract through his pre-draft workout performance — a path that has become increasingly viable as NBA teams prioritize developmental signing.

He transferred between two Colorado schools, showing the resilience and adaptability that have characterized his professional pursuit.

Standing 6-foot-5, Clifford has the size to guard shooting guards and small forwards, giving Doug Christie positional flexibility.

His undrafted status fuels a chip-on-the-shoulder mentality that teammates and coaches credit as one of his most valuable traits.
