A handful of personnel around the league have recently mentioned Phoenix’s intriguing interest in acquiring Sabonis. But while the Suns are not expected to make any major move this week that could jeopardize the chemistry and momentum of the NBA’s winningest team, league figures have pointed to a potential sign-and-trade this offseason that would conclude the Suns’ contract standoff with Deandre Ayton and in exchange land Sabonis in The Valley.

Domantas Sabonis will be the first All-Star to suit up for the Kings since Zach Randolph in 2018. The last King to make the All-Star Game was DeMarcus Cousins in 2017. – 4:20 PM

The Kings are acquiring Domantas Sabonis with two years left on his deal. He becomes extension-eligible this offseason for up to three years and a base amount of $75.4M, but he should be able to command more in free agency. – 3:27 PM

Purely from a viewing standpoint, the Pacers-Kings deal makes me more excited to watch both teams.
I think the Fox-Sabonis duo should be pretty fun with time. More Davion Mitchell minutes never hurt anybody.
The Pacers are trying something new for once and I think that’s swell – 3:19 PM

Just from looking at their roster, the Kings can’t be done making trades. It doesn’t make any sense.
Their starters look like De’Aaron Fox, Davion Mitchell, Mo Harkless, Harrison Barnes and Domantas Sabonis. – 2:44 PM

News of the trade broke in the middle of the Mad Ants game at The Fieldhouse with three Pacers scouts in the stands.
Moving Domas Sabonis was not done without reservations, though it seemed invitable before next season. It also gets him back out to California. – 2:28 PM

I think Sabonis is a terrific player. I also think the Kings have been a trash fire for too long for this to be a good trade for him. Hope I’m wrong – Kings fans are pretty great and deserve better than they’ve been given, and Sabonis deserves not to waste prime years. – 2:28 PM

Love the Sabonis-Haliburton trade for the Pacers. Kevin Pritchard has been on fire lately. A week ago, Sacramento was refusing to put Haliburton in the deal, offering Davion Mitchell-Marcus Bagley instead. I’d take Haliburton over those two all day. Strong re-build for Indy. – 2:27 PM

My initial thoughts, this is a heck of a haul by the #Pacers for their best player, Domantas Sabonis.

Quick thought from Kings side (not sure I am right trying to process)
* Couldn’t move Fox.
* Fox is really, really good with the ball in his hands
* Were going to have to max Haliburtion which would have been rich.
* Got off Hield
* Got a really good player in Sabonis – 2:04 PM

Trades like this are why the Kings have such a track record of futility. They give up a dynamic young guard and a good shooter for a big who can’t defend. It’s impossible to have a top 10 defense in todays NBA with Sabonis as your center – 2:01 PM

This is a tough trade for Kings fans. Tyrese Haliburton is one of the most likable players to land in Sacramento in years. Domantas Sabonis is a 25-year-old two-time All-Star. Kings need to make sure he stays beyond two years, which means they aren’t done revamping roster. – 2:00 PM

I would imagine Richaun Holmes could be on the move with Domantas Sabonis now in Sacramento. He has a 15% trade bonus that can push a trade into deadline day.
Kings generate a $4M trade exception and their cap situation remains the same both this and next season. – 1:53 PM

I feel like a lot of people are missing the point beyond the players that Sabonis is a UFA in 2024 and Haliburton still has TWO years left on his rookie deal before he’s an RFA. That’s what the baseball folks refer to as having a guy under team control. Insane deal for the Kings. – 1:48 PM

Man, I’m not sure what to think of that IND-SAC trade. SAC got the best player, but they gave up the wrong guard. Not sure how Sabonis works there with guys like Fox and Mitchell who are not good w/o ball in their hands. And from IND standpoint. Brogdon and Haliburton are clones – 1:45 PM
