1. Harrison Barnes

There is a reality in which the Sacramento Kings fall way out of the playoff race again and become sellers. If that occurs, expect the team to receive a ton of interest in forward Harrison Barnes.

Harrison Barnes is having an excellent start for the Kings thus far, putting together one of the best seasons of his career. He is averaging 19.9 points, which leads the team, to go along with 7.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game. The points, rebounds and steals would all be career-high marks.

He is also shooting a career-best 41.2 percent from the 3-point line and is a stellar, versatile defender. That kind of two-way play is valuable in the NBA and would net the Kings quite a return package should he be made available.

If the Kings are going to attempt to snap their playoff drought, Harrison Barnes isn’t going anywhere. Sacramento is extremely thin on the wing and at the power forward spot, where Barnes plays all of his minutes. The only way they would part ways with him is if another rebuild/roster retooling was on the docket.
