The Sacramento Kings are not interested in a potential trade for Jimmy Butler, sources tell Sam Amick of The Athletic. The Kings are already navigating a high pressure trade situation with De'Aaron Fox. Butler also would be a challenging fit for the Kings due to their spacing issues.
The Kings are seeking win-now players and future draft capital in exchange for Fox, who has signaled he doesn't intend to sign with the team long-term.
Butler is believed to be looking for a two-year max extension, which the Miami Heat have been unwilling to offer.
