Sacramento Kings Receive: F Andrew Wiggins, 2022 Second-Round Pick
Golden State Warriors Receive: F Harrison Barnes, C Richaun Holmes
Andrew Wiggins became a topic of conversation around the NBA trade deadline because of his production before the All-Star break. He cooled off quite a bit after the break and could be more useful being moved in a trade.
Harrison Barnes has been in NBA trade rumors since last offseason but nothing has happened to this point. He has just one year left on his contract where he is set to make $18 million.
If Barnes is not going to be re-signed, it makes sense for the Sacramento Kings to search for a deal so they can at least get something back.
Sacramento would send Barnes and Richaun Holmes, who recently signed an extension, to the Warriors. Wiggins and a draft pick would be the return for the Kings.

Wiggins also has just one year left on his deal and is set to make nearly double that of Barnes. At 27 years old, Wiggins could be looking for an extension from his next team.
Let’s look at how this NBA trade scenario would impact the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors.
