Marc Stein: < 24 hours to go until the NBA trade deadline: Sacramento has been sending more frequent signals that it plans to keep Harrison Barnes rather than trade him, league sources say, as it chases a playoff play-in spot. The Kings have missed the playoffs for 15 seasons in a row.

I wonder if Miami is gearing up to try and get someone like Harrison Barnes or Jerami Grant using Duncan Robinson’s contract.
They now have the flexibility to trade their 2022 and 2023 first round picks. – 3:32 PM

per @Chris Mannix the kings are finally aggressively looking to move harrison barnes. (the raptors, with dragic’s expiring and some draft capital, would be a really interesting trade partner imo)
whole lot more on the trade deadline right here: si.com/nba/2022/02/09… – 10:33 AM

Kings fall T’Wolves, then react to the 6-player deal swapping Tyrese Haliburton, Buddy Hield to the Pacers for Domantas Sabonis.
Hear from De’Aaron Fox, Harrison Barnes & Alvin Gentry & even Tyrese Haliburton’s final interview as a King.

Harrison Barnes on a very difficult day in Sacramento. “It was tough, it was an emotional day. It was tough to see guys who you’ve become really close to leave, but that’s just part of the business.” pic.twitter.com/bJMsPuMSNg – 12:59 AM

I’d consider trading Richaun Holmes now if I were the Kings.
1) You avoid fit issues with Holmes and Sabonis.
2) You can slide Harrison Barnes to his more natural position at power forward.
3) There are deals to be had with Toronto or Charlotte. – 4:53 PM

More on this storyline
Sacramento is expected to aggressively pursue a deal to offload Harrison Barnes, per sources. Barnes is owed $18 million next season, the final year of his deal. The Kings held on to Barnes at last year’s deadline in part because they believed Barnes could help get them to the playoffs in this one. With Sacramento struggling, the Kings appear to be more open than ever to trade Barnes, who is averaging 17 points and shooting 40% from three this season. -via Sports Illustrated / February 9, 2022
However, the Knicks have also asked the Kings about the availability of veteran combo forward Harrison Barnes. Multiple sources said, before the Haliburton trade, the Kings would be amenable to trading the 29-year-old Barnes, who played for Golden State’s superpower teams. -via New York Post / February 9, 2022
Kevin O’Connor: Jerami Grant and Harrison Barnes are two of the players the Jazz have had trade talks for, league sources say. With one week to go until the trade deadline, Utah is targeting wings that can defend. Here’s my video on Utah’s need for more quality defenders around Rudy Gobert: -via Twitter @KevinOConnorNBA / February 3, 2022
