Trae Young to Kings for Sabonis


SUCCESS

Fanspo logo

Rumors indicate Hawks are done with Young, but that he basically has neutral value.

Hawks get a good center who rebounds (doesn't protect rim) to pair with Okongwu. Also get DeRozen, who only has 10M guaranteed next year. He can be inserted into their wing rotation, probably not as a starter, and give them some good minutes. Also get Kings unwanted PG as an offset to the slightly higher trade value they are giving up.

Kings get a box office star in Young plus a starting caliber center (assuming he gets healthy) on an expiring contract. If he gets healt, they can maybe extend him for 20M per year. If not, cut bait. Also, they put an end to the Sabonis era, who is a tough fit because he isn't a rim protector.

I welcome comments, but please no comments without supporting reasoning (e.g. "Hawks pass".' Don't be a hater. If you’re going to say something, make it meaningful or don't bother)
