Success has been a word that has not been mentioned much with the Sacramento Kings over the years, other than when used to refer to De’Aaron Fox and rookie Tyrese Haliburton. Other than Fox and Haliburton, the Kings have not seen much success internally as an organization or on the court. That’s why they are a team to watch in NBA trade rumors this offseason.

They missed the playoffs for the 15th consecutive season this year and finished with a 31-41 record for the second consecutive year. This organization has not made any progress, which is why change is definitely coming this offseason. 

For years now, the Sacramento Kings have been deemed the “laughing stock” of the NBA given their lack of success and as a result, they have not been able to go after valuable assets during the offseason because nobody wants to play for them!

This is why the NBA Draft is not only important to them, but why they will be aggressive in making trades to add talent around their two highly-talented guards. 

Harrison Barnes is definitely a guy that the Kings could look to trade in the offseason since he has two-years and close to $40M remaining on his contract, but Buddy Hield is definitely a guy to keep an eye on.

Let’s take a look at four teams who should not only be highly interested if Buddy Hield hits the trade market this offseason, but four teams who should aggressively pursue him.
