Sacramento Kings Receive: G Duncan Robinson, 2023 First Round Pick
Miami Heat Receive: F Harrison Barnes
Harrison Barnes would be the centerpiece of this trade as a veteran option helping a win-now team. The Sacramento Kings have struggled in this department and could be looking to take advantage of the value around their forward.
Barnes would fit well next to Butler and Bam Adebayo because of his versatility. He can take over the small forward position and play others on both ends of the floor.
At the same time, the Kings would help Miami unload a contract. Duncan Robinson signed an extension last offseason and now could be looking for a new home.
Robinson would be the return going back to the Kings. He could bring a needed shooting impact alongside De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis. The two-man game with Sabonis in dribble handoffs (DHO) would be particularly intriguing.
