Sacramento Active On the Trade Market!

By on

        The Sacramento Kings are out here making a statement that last season was not a fluke. The Kings are just a completely different team compared to what we have known for nearly two decades. So far this season, De'Aaron Fox and Domantis Sabonis are looking like early All-Stars. While the Kings do have their two All-Stars they may be out looking for a third one. 



        It was recently reported by Shams Charania that "the Sacramento Kings are expected to be active on trade market." Shams added by saying "they're going to be involved in every star player, Pascal Siakam, OG Anunoby, maybe Zach LaVine." Zach LaVine seems like a real possibility since it was recently announced that LaVine and the Bulls are mutually open to exploring a trade. So far, teams that are interested in LaVine are the Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Lakers. However in the NBA anything can happen, for example Donovan Mitchell ends up in Cleveland in the summer of 2021 after heavy rumors about him on the Knicks and Damian Lillard ends up in Milwaukee after heavy rumors about him on the Heat this past summer. 



        Pascal Siakam has been floating around in trade rumors. The main team that has shown serious interest in Siakam are the Atlanta Hawks. This past summer, the Hawks did make an offer for Siakam that included De'Andre Hunter, AJ Griffin and draft compensation however the Raptors declined. The Raptors do need to decide if they're committed to Siakam because if he makes All-NBA this season then he is eligible for a 5-year, $288 Million extension. 



        OG Anunoby is a name that has also been floating around in trade rumors. OG has been known for his amazing defense and solid offense, one of the best two-way players in today's NBA. OG is a player you can easily plug into any team and he would be great for the Kings front court both defensively and offensively. OG is technically on the final year of his deal, under his contract next season is a player-option. He can opt out of his deal and become a free agent and there are many teams that would line up for OG. 



        The Sacramento Kings are now a team players would not mind joining. A great head coach in Mike Brown, All-Stars and winning. All of these factors work heavily in their favor when players are on the move. Currently with 8-5 record in the Western Conference and are the fifth seed, the Kings are good but they can potentially be better.

Kelly Oubre Jr. Free Agency!

          Kelly Oubre Jr. has been quite the journeyman in the NBA. In 2015, he was drafted by the Washington Wizards then after a few seasons would get traded to the Phoenix Suns. After a short stint in Phoenix, Oubre signed a one-year deal with the Golden State Warriors. Following a brief year in the Bay Area, he would spend a couple seasons with the Charlotte Hornets where he would have some of his best games. This season, Oubre finished a one-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers and will hit the free agency market again this summer.            For a player on a veteran minimum, Oubre was a significant impactful player this season. He averaged 15 points and 5 rebounds per game. His defense was nothing less than amazing and his athleticism played to his strength this year. Oubre will have multiple suitors this summer from championship-contending teams.            The Philadelphia 76ers...

          It is officially the end of an era for the Toronto Raptors. Pascal Siakam has been mentioned in trade rumors for most of the season. While Siakam's wish was to stay with the Raptors, the business of the NBA tends to interfere with wishes. It has been announced that Pascal Siakam has been traded to the Indiana Pacers.            Pascal Siakam was drafted by the Toronto Raptors in 2016 with the twenty-seventh overall pick. He was a huge piece in helping the Raptors win their first ever NBA championship in 2019 against the Golden State Warriors. After winning a championship he was named an NBA All-Star in 2020 and again in 2023. Siakam has also made All-NBA twice, All-NBA Second Team in 2020 and then All-NBA Third Team in 2022. Siakam has accomplished a lot in his eight years in the NBA, now he will join a rising young team in Indianapolis.           Full trade details: The Indiana Pace...

Knicks Big Man Search

By on

          The New York Knicks are coming off their first 50-win season in over a decade but after losing Isaiah Hartenstein in free agency they need to look for another big. They only have two centers on the roster, Mitchell Robinson and Jericho Sims. Having Robinson go back into the starting lineup isn't much of an issue, besides some health concerns, but Sims as the backup is still a question. He has yet to be a consistent rotation player in his young career. Matter of fact, in his three seasons in the league he has only played in over 50 games once.            There aren't any free-agent centers that can be seen as reliable backups for the Knicks. The team still has seven of their own first-round picks that they could trade to find the big man they need. According to an X account, "BigKnicksEnergy," a league source reported that the Knicks are interested in Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards and are willing to move ...
