Sacramento Kings

Dallas has resisted a buyout for Klay Thompson because a market is forming, Jake Fischer said on a Bleacher Report stream.

Sacramento and Toronto came close to a Domantas Sabonis trade at February's deadline, with RJ Barrett part of the package heading back, per ESPN's Anthony Slater.

Domantas Sabonis is expected to remain with the Kings after months of trade exploration produced no deal, with team sources saying he is willing to fully recommit to the roster.

Sacramento remains interested in Jonathan Kuminga but is wary of a sign-and-trade that would hard-cap the team at the first apron, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports.

The Kings want a veteran guard behind rookie Darius Acuff Jr., and Jake Fischer says a Russell Westbrook reunion is a live option. Westbrook averaged 15.2 points, 6.7 assists and 5.4 rebounds in Sacramento last season.

The Kings are looking for an experienced point guard to help bring along rookie Darius Acuff Jr., according to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer of The Stein Line.

Marc Stein of The Stein Line reports that Portland has no interest in signing DeMar DeRozan, who became an unrestricted free agent after being waived by Sacramento.

Speculation about a buyout between Zach LaVine and the rebuilding Sacramento Kings has been dismissed, with reports indicating neither side is interested in that route at this time. LaVine is in the final year of his deal at roughly $48.9 million after opting in.
