They don't need Kant.
They have WCS, Bagley3, Bjelica as their Bigs.
Will Kant be happy there backing up WCS?
Also, Knix don';t need to move Kant, we need to move Courtly or Tim.
I'd be trying to interest them in Burke and Courtly for their expirings.
Right now, they start Shump at SG and he's also expiring as is McLemore who they don't seem to trust. Tim Jr is more of a commitment for Sacto to take on, and Hield is already better in a similar role.
Actually, looking at their roster, you can see why they are around .500.
Fox - Yogi/Mason
Shump - Bogdanovic
Hield - Jackson
Bejelica - Bagley III
WCS - Koufos
Pretty solid with a lot of young legs. Fox & Hield having nice seasons.
Bog is pretty slick. WCS is solid. Bejelica is good. Bagley athletic and big. I'm not really sure what Justin Jax's game is.
They have the lowest payroll this season, with at least $37M in ending deals. They could bring back Shump on a cheaper deal -- say $6M instead of his current $11M. And maybe that is preferable to paying Courtly $12M. But they'll need to add players just to meet the minimum payroll for next year. Koufos, McLemore and Zach all likely gone. I'd think Courtly is more reliable than Shump.
Really Bogdan x2 should be readywillingable to start next year.
I haven't seen the Kings enough to know what's going on with them.
Seems they need to upgrade their backup PG and SG slots.
Burke and Courtly for whichever endings they want to toss our way.
McLemore & Koufos would match the $$ almost exactly
