Kings fan. Born a son of a peach farmer I inadvertently inspired my friend James Naismith to create the game of basketball. He was going to use a pail we fed pigs with but I convinced him that bucketball sounded stupid.
As a Kings fan, is it wrong I was looking forward to watching Wembanyama today more than I was to watching the Kings?
I’m bummed he’s out.

The Kings are about to go on a ten game winning streak and wreck the whole tear down dream, aren’t they?

This is AI guess on a Domas to Celts trade
• Anfernee Simons a young guard
• Sam Hauser and Georges Niang provide shooting and role player depth
• Neemias Queta
• Two first-round picks serve as significant draft capital for Sacramento, aiding their rebuilding efforts.

Rumor has it the Kings are finally looking to tear down . Sabonis DeRozan LaVine.
I’ve only seen 2 sources and nothing from Shams yet.

If you could trade DeRozan Monk and Schroder and even if all you could get was draft picks wouldn’t this team still be better than the current team?
1-2 Westbrook Ellis Clifford
2-4 Zach Murray Achiuwa
5 Sabonis Eubanks
Minute distribution & D would both be better
Carter, Raynaud, Cardwell

Rumor I saw on perplexity
Ja Morant: The Golden State Warriors have reportedly explored interest in a trade for Morant, though it's unclear if the Memphis Grizzlies would make their star guard available. A separate rumor suggests the Rockets could trade for Morant, with the Kings possibly involved

Asking people who actually know something. I don’t believe this to be true but are there any legs to the rumor Sabonis requested a trade in the last 10 days?

Remember at the trade deadline DeRozan has a little less than 9.2 owed to him for the rest of the season
That is a small price to pay for a team who needs a hired gun to have a shot at a championship.
He is also only guaranteed 10.0 for 26-27 making him easily to trade or cut for new team.

Our point guards are throwing up over 21 shots per 48 minutes.
They are taking over 23% of the shots.
Historically, they are both bad shooters.
They have got to dial it down to 14 per 48.
This is not a recipe for success.
Give Sabonis the ball.

I just realized if we had never traded Fox we would not have had Fox Sabonis or Murray to start the season. With no trade Zach would not be here.
If we never traded for Sabonis, Halliburton would be out all season.

I think the future is clear; DDR is traded by this ASB Zach by the 26-27 ASB. Sabonis by the start of the 27-28 season at the latest
The rebuild has begun but the first watershed moment will be DeRozan.
I wish them/us luck.
I’ll be taking a loss selling STs for the next few yrs
