Nemanja Bjelica

As the season progresses the Sacramento Kings find themselves in a familiar position: near the bottom of the standings and finally ready to ship their veterans to actual playoff teams. Nemanja Bjelica is the most likely to be traded. He has been out of the rotation for most of the season, only appearing in 25 games thus far.

The Kings may not have much use for the Bjelica but contending teams could find one. Prior to this season, he has shot over 40 percent from long range for three consecutive seasons. He is a solid rebounder and would thrive for a team that could cover up some of his defensive deficiencies. The Philadelphia 76ers come to mind as a team always looking for more shooting. If Kyle Lowry is truly not available, as is being reported, the Sixers should make a move for him.

He is unlikely to be the only frontcourt player for the Kings being called about. Harrison Barnes is one of the top names on market. Hassan Whiteside is perennially available. Even Richaun Holmes is likely available for the right return. Eventually, there will be a season when the Kings are able to make the push that they are helping facilitate for others. Just not this season.
