Very active at the trade deadline, the Kings did not finally move a centerpiece, either in one direction or the other. To close this evening of March 25, 2021, they got their hands on Terence Davis from the Raptors. It doesn’t break a duck’s three legs, but we had to talk about it.
Sophomore non-drafted, it is in Toronto that this rear mounted on springs takes his first steps in the Great League. With 7.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.6 average assist during his rookie season, we can speak of a great find for Masai Ujiri. Still as productive since the beginning of the year, he nevertheless saw his name appear in a case of domestic violence at the end of 2020 which did not help his case. Eventually, the Raptors decided to send him to Sacramento for a future second-round draft to try and get their hands on a new nugget with their usual thin noses. For a long time, it was believed that Toronto was making room in its roster to set up a deal involving several players around Kyle Lowry but it ultimately never happened. So we end up with this trade which will not revolutionize the NBA announced by Adrian Wojnarowski ofESPN.

What do we see that we are dealing with a second-rate trade? Even the Woj allowed himself a mistake in the first name of the back without bothering to correct it afterwards. We know he had other files on the fire, but still. In his defense, the sophomore is coming to the end of his contract this season and his future in the League is no more certain than the presence of the Kings in the Playoffs. We can rather speak of experience on the part of Sacramento which once again made the bet of the youth during this trade deadline. At worst, it will make them appear in a few more Top 10 stocks each morning.

It’s hard to get excited about this trade which could still give the Kings a little extra juice out of the bench. After all, they only post 10th place in the League and maybe hope to move up a little in this ranking thanks to Terence Davis.
