In just his third season at the top level in 2021, the key forward continued to showcase himself as a future star. Having already played more than 50 games in his short career, King had a prolific season, kicking 47 goals to finish equal sixth in the Coleman Medal and earn selection in the AFLPA’s 22Under22 side. King unfortunately ruptured his ACL during the 2022 pre-season, ruling him out for the year.
