The Sacramento Kings bolstered one of the top offenses in league history during their 48-win 2022-23 season but were noted as one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. This season, the Kings took a step back on offense, but took a significant stride forward on the defensive end, going from 28th to 14th-best defensive rating in the league. The Kings can thank many people for this improvement, but the league recognized Sacramento's star duo for their defense. As the 2023-24 NBA All-Defensive Teams released on Tuesday, the complete voting results were unveiled as well.

But why do the Pellies do this? They are so deep that Huerter and Barnes are basically depth pieces/salary matching for them, and the 2027 FRP is several years away. If they trade Ingram they are probably sliding Trey Murphy into his starting spot, not Huerter. And Barnes is probably battling Naji Marshall for backup forward minutes behind Zion and Herb Jones. So why are they trading Ingram for two guys who are making $35M and coming off their bench?

The Bulgarian international is rumored to be exploring his options across the NBA and is looking into a possible return to Europe.
