Why The Sacramento Kings Do The Deal

The Sacramento Kings do this deal with that 16-year playoff drought looming over their heads. They’d be unlikely to miss the postseason in 2022-23 following this trade.

After all, Dejounte Murray and Donovan Mitchell would be one of the best backcourts in the entire NBA. Pair them with a playmaking big like Sabonis and a versatile forward like Harrison Barnes, and you’ve got a recipe for success.

They likely won’t be hoisting the Larry O’Brien trophy. This trade doesn’t make the Kings serious title contenders. With that said, if the sum is greater than the parts, they could win a playoff series or two following this deal.

It doesn’t matter. This trade is about getting the Sacramento Kings to the playoffs. They’d need a colossal stroke of misfortune to miss them after assembling this core group.
