The Kings are interested in Garland and Trae Young?

Basketball

As we all know, the Kings are famous for being a sucker, specializing in cultivating talents for others and receiving unnecessary "trash". What everyone is most familiar with in recent years is that in February 2022, the team exchanged the potential new star Halliburton with a steady style for the "center brush" Sabonis. This operation only brought the Kings a first-round playoff game experience class. In contrast, the Pacers have reached the finals under the leadership of Halliburton.

Immediately in February this year, the Kings management became hot again, giving up Fox, who was only 26 years old per game, in exchange for LaVine, who was older, more fragile and worse defense. The team also experienced a failed season again.

As the days when the free trading market is relaxed in the offseason are getting closer, the Kings are in a hurry to come out as a takeover.

According to Grant Afseth, the Kings are interested in finding long-term solutions at the point guard position and show interest in Garland and Trae Young. The Cavaliers just showed their idea of ​​selling Garland, and the Kings were the first to stand up and responded completely ignoring Garland's poor performance in the second round of the playoffs. In the second round of the playoff series against the Pacers, Garland averaged 14 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 turnovers, 4.3 fouls, with only 34.2% shooting percentage and 3-point shooting percentage as low as 16.7%, which is the main reason for the team being eliminated. Moreover, Garland's contract has 3 years of $126.5 million, with an average salary of more than 40 million. The Kings don’t want Halliburton and Fox, but instead want to pursue Garland. It’s really a brainwave!

Just as everyone was waiting to see the Kings joke, the Cavaliers reported that Garland had successfully undergone a repair surgery for a big toe injury, and it would take 4-5 months to rest, and would most likely miss the first month of the regular season next season. As soon as this news came out, all rumors about Garland's transaction came to an abrupt end. Garland's operation decision not only temporarily saved his chance to stay in the Cavaliers, but also indirectly prevented the Kings from acting as a sucker again.

As for Trae Young, according to the latest news from the US media, the Eagles took the initiative to find the king, not the king was interested in getting Trae Young. Now the negotiations have entered a stagnant stage, and the king initially wanted to get Garland.

After a careful comparison, Trae Young wants to compare Halliburton and Fox to be more beautiful in data, but his defense and team leadership have always been criticized, especially since the Hawks have not entered the playoffs in the past two seasons, which has made the team gradually lose patience with him, which has the plan to trade him! But is he really useful to the king?

are located in Yanmen! Do you think Garland or Trae Young is suitable for the king?
