Sacramento Kings and its key players Rudy Gay and DeMarcus Cousins are regulars in the NBA trade rumor mills. Reports have it that both might be wearing another jersey in the upcoming NBA season. Both could land to Chicago Bulls or Boogie might join Toronto Raptors.
According to Yibada, Chicago Bulls and Sacramento Kings are progressing on their trade talks involving Rudy Gay and Taj Gibson. Reports have it that both teams made a drastic move this offseason.
The rumors about the Rudy Gay and Taj Gibson trade between Chicago Bulls and Sacramento Kings have been around for over a year already. The market trade values of both players have declined, so the swap still makes sense for both teams.
Aside from Rudy Gay, another Sacramento Kings player is rumored to be heading to Chicago. In a separate report, Bulls can trade for Boogie because they have the resources.
Bulls have given up NBA MVP Derrick Rose to New York Knicks to sign more high-profile players, including Dwyane Wade and Rajon Rondo. Sacramento Kings will surely capitalize DeMarcus Cousins' huge market trade value but Bulls can still afford it.
In addition, DeMarcus Cousins wants to win and chances are higher for him to experience this with Chicago Bulls than with Kings. Per the reports, Boogie is desperate to taste victory. In fact, he made real efforts to join Team USA to win.
Aside from the said reasons, Chicago Bulls offers a green pasture for men with larger than life personality. Chicago Bulls is a great team to build a legacy in the NBA league and create a billion dollar portfolio in the business market.
Meanwhile, aside from Chicago Bulls, other sources continued to link DeMarcus Cousins to Toronto Raptors. According to Fansided, Raptors can afford the luxury tax of acquiring Boogie. However, the remaining two-year contract would cost over $35 million.
If Toronto Raptors want to convince Sacramento Kings to trade DeMarcus Cousins to them, they should give up one of their players. Raptors can send Jonas Valanciunas, who also plays the center position.
