Failing to find the playoffs, the Kings have found their duo of the future, and it is De’Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton. They are untouchable, the leaders will try to surround them well, and for several days, it is rumored that Buddy Hield has his ticket out.
Considered one of the best shooters in the NBA, the Bahamian has often taken the lead with Luke Walton, and without doubt now is the right time to change tune. Especially since the Lakers would be very interested in his profile, and a few days ago, we were talking about a “swap” with Kyle Kuzma.
But The Athletic explains that for salary reasons, the Lakers must part with an additional player, and the ideal would be for Montrezl Harrell to play his “player option” at $ 9.7 million, to then be sent with Kyle Kuzma to the Kings. This Kuzma-Harrell tandem would seduce Sacramento, and so the ball is in Montrezl Harrell’s court.
For his part, Hoopshype explains that the former best sixth man in the NBA has still not made a decision on his future. It must be said that he has often complained of his fate, and the tendency is rather to test the market rather than to pile up with the Lakers. Unless he is happy to join Sacramento…
As for Buddy Hield, he has been interested in the Sixers for a long time, and this lead could be reactivated.
