NBA Trade Rumors: 10 bold predictions for the trade deadline

NBA Trade Deadline bold predictions: The Sacramento Kings trade Harrison Barnes

The Sacramento Kings have been one of the most disappointing teams in the Western Conference this season. Even though no one really expected this team to be a top 5 or 6 team in the West, at the very least there was some expectation for them to be at least in the playoff race.

At the midway point of the season, the Kings are 14-22, 13th in the West, and five games out of the 8th and final playoff spot in the conference. Even though they’re not entirely out of the playoff race, it would be highly surprising for them to make a big enough of a turnaround to make a true push.

Trading Harrison Barnes would be a smart move for this team, especially if they’re seeking some sort of retooling during the offseason. They could sell high on his value which is likely the best it will be over the next few years.
