One prediction for every NBA team at the NBA Trade Deadline
By Corey Rausch
Sacramento Kings – Sell
The Sacramento Kings have a winning record and are one of the best stories of the early season. Marvin Bagley has finally been healthy. Buddy Hield is playing like he did two years ago. De’Aaron Fox has taken the next step and pairs perfectly with Rookie of the Year contender Tyrese Haliburton.
All the positivity aside there are still plenty of opportunities to add future assets for those no longer parts of the plan to build up for later. Nemanja Bjelica has only appeared in 10 games so far this season but would be a perfect fit elsewhere. Nabbing a second-round pick for a guy only playing 15.1 minutes per game is a no-brainer.
The fit with the Milwaukee Bucks is intriguing if they can get past the failed trade during the offseason. DJ Wilson was part of that ill-fated trade and could still be a worthwhile flyer for the Kings. Monte Morris has struggled to minutes so far this season and makes the money work. Throw in a second-round pick and both teams should walk away happy.
Morris is an intriguing rotational piece for the Kings. He would fit much better than Cory Joseph does and would help stabilize a team looking to end their playoff drought.
