Where do you guys think Trey Lyles stands at this point? He was the only pure power forward left on the team at the end of the season, unless you include Isaac Jones. But a lot of times, he played "small ball" center.

That is not very many people available for trading! The team does have a folder full of second-round picks that might grease the wheels, though. It would not surprise me to see the Kings try to move up in the draft if one of the guys you name is shipped out.

Since I did not know the answer to this question, I will post it here: teams can start trading as soon as their season has ended. That means the Kings can trade with any one of 26 teams right now. Wide open field.

A lot of virtual ink has been spilled about the Kings' defensive liabilities, especially defending the three-point line. In fact, Sacramento was dead last in opponents' three-point percentage this past season. The previous season, they were next-to-last. That has to be first priority, whether...

In one of the initial reports from 2022, Jason Anderson opines that "He (Gentry) will assist with player evaluation and advise on team building strategy. He will have an office in Sacramento, but will travel to NBA, G League and college sites." My guess was off the mark, but the actual...

Getting fans through the gates?

What is the time limit on this? Next trade deadline or All-Star break?

Hey, Olajuwon and Keon share the spotlight tonight! Kid's moving up in the world.

If you are talking about Zach LaVine being a positive or negative for the Sacramento Kings, post all-star break, his shooting was phenomenal: 53% from the field, 49.2% from three, 84.7% from the line, with 3.5 assists per game. If you want a shooting guard or small forward, this is the guy...

Zion Williamson is definitely a gamble. But let me point out that he will turn 25 in July. He is just about to enter his prime years. In his best two seasons, out of five, he played 61 and 70 games, respectively. With a proper physical regimen, and maybe Ozempic, he could stay on the court...

Fairly. What AI bot would be as crazy as this?

Thank you for doing all that! It is a great site for Sacramento Kings fans. So many interesting points of view and real basketball fans here.

One way to get a superstar is to find one before anyone else does. As Kayte said during a recent game, "To be fair, no one knew that SGA was going to be SGA" when he was traded to Oklahoma City from the LA Clippers. That is what we hope Scott Perry can bring.

Trade DeMar DeRozan for Cameron Johnson. ESPN Trade machine says it can be done as a straight-up trade. Not that Johnson is a better player--he is a better fit for the Kings. The whole should be greater than the parts on a well-coached basketball team. This is a big step in that direction.

I will let Lakers GM Rob Pelinka answer that: “When you make a seismic trade at the deadline, it’s kind of like trying to build an airplane in the sky. Now we have a chance to land the plane, put it in the hangar and really try and figure out what we need to retrofit and change."
