Grading the Spurs-Kings-Bulls Blockbuster


Bulls get: Zach Collins, Kevin Huerter, Tre Jones, 2025 1st round pick ---Grade: B- ---Reason: Dumping salary was a huge helper to get them started on their rebuild, which is now, clearly, in full effect. They moved on from two of their best players in the past 5 or so years, and have strengthened their bench while letting Sacramento deal with LaVine and DeRozan. While their future is uncertain, they have a bunch of young talent and veteran helpers. --- ---Kings get: Zach LaVine, Cidy Cosoko, 3 first rounders ('25,'27,'29), 3 second rounders ('25, 2 '28s) ---Grade: B- ---Reason: Seeing how Chicago has been over the past few years, Sacramento has now turned into an upscale version of Chicago, with an upgraded Vucevic-like player in Sabonis. They traded their 2 best players since 2016 (De'Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton). Outside of adding a sizeable amount of draft capital, their future is very uncertain --- ---Spurs get: De'Aaron Fox, Jordan McLaughlin ---Grade: A ---Reason: The NBA has now felt a disturbance in the force. They picked an all-star guard who can thrive in San Antonio. San Antonio has created one of the best pick-&-rolls in the entire league. If they can resign Fox and improve Vassell, they have a bright future.
