The Kings are going to lose monk for sure but that doesn’t mean other teams will be over paying. The Jazz simply paying the max to monk that the Kings can offer. This saves the Jazz from giving up more of their cap space to steal away og from the Knicks. Smart! The Kings get rid of a grumpy 😡 player and pick up two picks that save them money 💰 The kings will have much better balance and team control with those picks. Also Clarkson is known to be a great talent though we could argue about last year inefficiency.

The bulls move Lavine and jazz really don’t mind but won’t do it without improving their pick positions. The jazz really consolidating while moving up ⬆️ in the draft. The jazz can improve while stashing players away assuming they stash topic.

The bulls can resign and lure in some other talent after free up that cap from Lavine. Collins is a nice 👍 get as he was improving back to form. Maybe 🤔 these teams get wise and so this … or not
