Wizards/Kings

[sackings916]

Wizards trade:
Kyle Kuzma

Kings trade:
2024 1st round pick #13
2027 1st round pick (top 10 protected)
Kevin Huerter
Trey Lyles

Why for WASH- Get 2 firsts and 2 solid rotation guys. Lyles is $8M expiring and Huerter only has about 2/$32M left on his deal if they choose to reroute in future trades

Why for SAC- upgrade talent and get their #3 to go with Fox and Sabonis

[psman2]

I got the 13 more than enough value here. Huerter in a bigger role likely regains enough value to be flipped for an expirings/2nds at the deadline.

The deal seems reasonable to me from a Wizards' perspective. I don't really care which players are used as filler. It could be any combination of Barnes, Huerter, Lyles, Vezenkov, Mitchell or Duarte.

[TGW]

Easy yes for the Wizards. I actually think this is too good a deal for them. Maybe the 2027 pick is top 20 instead of top 10.

Barnes/13/future 2nd for Kuz/26

[BoogieTime]

why are you adding to the 13?

Barnes/13/future 2nd for Kuz/26

Nah. That's not enough for Kuzma. We will shop elsewhere.

[pillwenney]

2 1sts is too much and I'd look elsewhere, but I don't think we need to be asking for #26 back either.

[Xman]

The idea is solid. I think the future first is asking too much but who knows.

Wizards trade:
Kyle Kuzma

Kings trade:
2024 1st round pick #13
2nds in 2026, 2027, 2028
Kevin Huerter
Trey Lyles

- the 2nds are compensation for having to pay Huerter. Uhhggg - Poole and Huerter - talk about overpaid combo.

[OxAndFox]

Absolutely no way the Kings (nor any other team) should trade 2 firsts, one being a lottery pick, for Kuzma.
Barnes/13 for Kuzma/26 is the way to go. I understand Wizards fans might not feel it's enough, but Barnes in a larger role and his professionalism will do wonders for Washington.

Kuzma is an average player who has a green light. What does he do that is above average? Apart from turning the ball over?

[bpcox05]

Yeah I hate this trade for the Kings. I wouldn’t even give up #13 alone for Kuzma.

[SNPA]

Barnes/13/future 2nd for Kuz/26

Nah. That's not enough for Kuzma. We will shop elsewhere.

I hope Sac is good with that.

Kuz should not be a priority.

[wemby]

Waaaay to much for Kuzma. I'm not sure I'd put that no. 13 on the table TBH.
