Sacramento Kings Receive: G/F Evan Fournier, 2023 First-Round Pick (DAL via NYK)
New York Knicks Receive: F Harrison Barnes
With that said, nobody has to tell the New York Knicks about not getting what they want.
This organization has grown used to that feeling. The Knicks wanted Zion Williamson – they got RJ Barrett instead. They wanted Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving – they got Julius Randle.
Most recently, the Knicks wanted Donovan Mitchell. Instead, they got Jalen Brunson. It feels like somehow, the Knicks always come up short.
At the same time, fans of the organization shouldn’t complain to Kings fans. After all, the Kings have missed the playoffs for an NBA record 16 consecutive seasons.
