Sacramento Kings Receive: F Talen Horton-Tucker, C DeAndre Jordan

Marvin Bagley III and the Sacramento Kings have a relationship that could be tarnished. If that is the case, he could be the first player moved, or at least be dealt in part of an overhaul attempt of the supporting cast.

Bagley III is just 22 years old and still has a high ceiling if a new team is able to develop him the right way. There are few better than the Los Angeles Lakers for him to do so.

Los Angeles would receive Bagley III and a second-round pick in this particular NBA trade scenario. He has been unable to find a rhythm in Sacramento but could perhaps thrive alongside greater individual talents as he works to develop his game.

In return for Bagley III, the Lakers would have to send Talen Horton-Tucker and DeAndre Jordan to Sacramento. Jordan would be a salary filler, but Horton-Tucker has upside that could be intriguing to the Kings on the perimeter.
