From Chad Ford's article:

For the Kings, this could also change their draft equation. The team has been looking at drafting DeMarcus Cousins and Greg Monroe, both centers. With this deal, it could allow them to address another need at the three. the Kings have been high on both Al-Farouq Aminu and Gordon Hayward.

That's a lie. Dalembart is here because he's a 12m expiring, that's the only reason. We'll draft a big still. We have Omri Casspi and Donte Greene at the 3 already.

Why would they not take a center...
Dalembert is only there for his expiring.

Chad Ford is a dumbass lol.

On that Kings front, here's the info I've gathered: The 1-2 wish list for No. 5 pick is Kentucky's Cousins and Georgetown's Monroe.

Only way I'd see the Kings taking Aminu is if they absolutely fall in love with him, and love Dalembert's game enough to extend him.

Doubtful at best lol.

I wouldn't be THAT upset with Aminu. He's an athletic three that can score and defend real well. But... if we draft him Dumars better do whatever he can to deal Rip and/or Tay for a legit big.

Daye is no where near a legit starter yet. He has another year or so of work left to do.

I like this deal for the Kings because they free up a lot of cap space and arent tied down to heavy contracts in the near future. With that salary cap they could use it to sign a key free agent to pair up with Reke.

Have about 15m in CAP space this year, with around 30m next I believe.
