You know the “reports” I’m talking about.
They look like this
Stop me if you’ve heard that before.
Remember when Kyrie Irving was going to go to the Lakers for the minimum or whatever?

Those were run times.
Now, from a basketball fit standpoint, I definitely still have questions.
For the Kings, that’s partially why this is such a significant signing.

Since that decision, they’ve now offloaded/lost DeMar DeRozan, Alex Caruso, and Andre Drummond.
Josh Giddey, Chris Duarte, and some 2nd round picks.
That feels….kind of like a mismanagement of assets.
With Vuc and LaVine still on the roster, I have no idea what their plan is.
If you’re going to sell off pieces, that’s fine.
But part of that rebuild requires getting actual pieces back, especially when it comes to your best players.
For the Kings, this is a gamble worth taking in my opinion.
At the worst, you’ve got the option to always flip him down the road if needed.
