Scores four in win
King scored four goals and one behind to go with seven marks made during Thursday's 77-67 win over Richmond in Round 16.
ANALYSIS
King hasn't been so consistent in the last month but stepped up to score the game-clinching goal in the final moments of the final quarter. If he can start scoring more than one goal each week, King's value as a forward will climb back to what it was earlier in the season.

Kicks two goals in loss
King scored two goals and three behinds in addition to making five marks during Saturday's 124-51 loss to Brisbane.
ANALYSIS
King was one of just five players to score goals in an extremely lopsided loss to the Lions in the QClash. If he's able to log a few more touches, King would have more value than he currently projects as a lower-tier option at forward. He's still already scored 25 goals through nine rounds, which is as many as he scored in all of last season.

Scores five in win
King scored give goals and one behind to go with seven marks made during Saturday's 100-60 win over Sydney.
ANALYSIS
King had a career day against an inefficient Swans club and it resulted in his best performance of the season. While his disposal numbers make it harder to rely on him for upper-level fantasy value, King is a forward worth a little more than Izak Rankine, who spends most of his time darting around on the flank.

Puts four behind in win
King scored two majors and kicked four behinds while also making six marks during Sunday's 91-28 win over North Melbourne.
ANALYSIS
King had one of his more productive efforts of the season but still could have done even more to pad the scoreline in a one-sided contest. His production has been anything but valuable all season, but this match could be a good barometer for a big game either at the end of this season or in the next.

Scores three in loss
King scored three goals and put one behind during Saturday's 89-52 loss to Geelong.
ANALYSIS
King has climbed up the scoring charts with eight goals over his past three matches. He'll need to keep up his efforts since Matthew Rowell suffered a shoulder injury that may make results harder for Suns.

Kicks three majors in win
King recorded 13 disposals (seven kicks, six handballs), six marks, three goals and two behinds in Sunday's 82-29 victory over the Crows.
ANALYSIS
King provided a solid target up front, kicking a game-high three goals. Still yet to turn 20, King is beginning to realize some of his potential. Not surprisingly, King's progression has coincided with the Suns emerging as a competitive force this season. We are still a long way from declaring them a premiership threat but things are certainly trending in the right direction.
