Maybe? I mean, that’s still speculative. This is how negotiations work. Maybe the agent has, maybe they will “claim” they have. I’m not ready to assume anything without proof. I imagine the Kings FO has done some homework since acquiring him. I also imagine Heild values himself above reality?
One things for sure, that Barnes contract was a bad contract. And IMO, using it as a baseline for another seems... irresponsible. As a franchise that is. As a player I understand, you’re a better player, you should earn more. But how many players can we point out earn a fair salary? I think as far roster building, most non-all star players earn too much, their contracts hurt franchises.

No question about that but should it inflate their worth?id argue their are quite more players that can do what he does once given his role. That to me starts to say he’s not terribly unique.
Being a Blazer fan isn't exactly healthy.
