Why The Sacramento Kings Do The Deal
This isn’t an obvious solution for Sacramento. It’s not what conventional wisdom would have them do.
After all, the Kings already had the best offense in the NBA this year. They need more help on the defensive end of the floor. Meanwhile, Beal is roughly neutral on that end of the floor.
Here’s the counterpoint: the Kings are adding Bradley Beal to the best offense in the NBA. How will opposing teams guard this?
We doubt they can. So, this deal has the Kings leaning hard into their offensive identity. They’ll hope to score their way to a title run.
