Potential Kings Target Expected to Hit Trade Market

The Sacramento Kings have attempted to build their roster around the star duo of De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis, but their 2023 first-round exit and 2024 playoff absence suggest they have not been successful. With a high-pressure off-season ahead of them, the Kings may look toward the trade market to snag their next star. Many fans have expected 2022 fourth-overall pick Keegan Murray to leap into stardom, but trading for a sure-fire stud this summer could be the best move for Sacramento, even at the expense of Murray. HoopsHype's Michael Scotto reported that Brandon Ingram is considered the most likely New Orleans Pelicans player to be traded this off-season, creating a path for Sacramento to swoop in if he hits the market.
