TRADE SCENARIO #6 – Sacramento Kings
OUT – Eric Bledsoe and Marquese Chriss
IN – DeAaron Fox and Kosta Koufos
Why would the Kings do this? Eric Bledsoe gives them a proven PG who will help them win games sooner. Marquese Chriss would be the hometown kid, as he was born in Sacramento and the Kings drafted him prior to being traded for by the Suns. To convince the Kings to let go, Phoenix would take on Koufos’ contract which Sac has been trying to shed.
Why would the Suns do this? DeAaron Fox was the 5th pick in the draft, is only 19 and fits the timeline perfectly. He is a young John Wall and why wouldn’t Phoenix want that?
