Why The Sacramento Kings Do The Deal
The Sacramento Kings do this trade because they’re landing Kevin Durant. Thanks for reading.
In fact, Durant’s fit with this squad is enticing. In some ways, the fit between De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis is questionable. They’re both high-end on-ball creators in very different ways, but they’re also both subpar floor-spacers.
Durant could be the piece that ties them together. After all, he’s one of the best shooters in NBA history. Suddenly, the Kings would have three players who are capable of drawing double teams. Opposing defenses won’t be able to double them all.
This one is far-fetched. We’ll admit that. Realistically, the Nets would entertain Fox and the same amount of draft capital here, and hang up the phone when the Kings decline.

With that said, if the situation in Brooklyn continues to decline, they could get desperate. In that event, this offer is worth a try for the Kings. Nevermind their playoff drought: they could bring home an NBA championship.
