ship it!
one nice thing here is the stack sizes. Nobody can comfortably call you light (maybe the SB). So they will generally need to wake up with a real hand in a spot like this. to snap you off in a spot like this. Probably A9 and AT folds here as well as 22-77.

Look ahead into the future of this tournament and ask yourself.
1. Am I going to pick up a better hand than this in the next two or three hands.
2. What happens after the blinds go through me?
3. How many chips do I need to make the final table? And is my stack of chipe now going to get me into a deep finish.
4. How many players behind how much chance there is of them picking up better hands considering our a is a blocker. And how often do they actually call us with a better hand?
Above all though we have 9bbs but when we adjust that to account for the antes in play we have 7bbs. So wouod you shove this with 7bbs? If not what hands are you happy to shove here?

It's a shove.
Look at how much is in that pot....like 25k which represents about 30 percent of your stack.
Winning without a showdown is a huge coup here, and you hand plays well against a good chunk of a villain's calling range like 66 77 all good Kings...
I mean we definitely want folds here, but....that overlay is tasty.
AGAIN, you need to add pertinent ICM info like how many are left, and if we are close to the bubble or a pay jump for better feedback. For instance in SOME structures right on the bubble this may be a fold.

I'd say this is a shove. Unless you want to blind down to nothing like Helmuith, you need to take a stand with an 8BB stack. You've got to remember that A 8 Suited may be the best hand you see the next couple BB's.
