Off-Season Rumblings

Kings fans threw out this idea:

John Collins + 29 + 32 for Kevin Huerter + 13 + salary filler

I’d instant accept without thinking twice.
Hard to believe it was a Kings fan suggesting that.

I think that is a pretty solid trade for both teams. It clears the minutes to really focus on developing Kessler or maybe you go the Zach Edey route at 10 or 13. Either way I like it more than giving Collins minutes. At the same time I really like the fit of Collins with an elite passing big like Sabonis. They also get 2 looks at cheap cost controlled prospects at 29 and 32. I'm thinking they ask us to take back Vezenkov and Duarte as well for salary purposes. Helps them shave a couple million more in salary to try to bring back Monk.
 
When/why did Huerter's contract become a negative asset? I feel like I missed that.
He struggled and ended the year with shoulder surgery. His numbers weren’t like tragic but Kings fans I know are over him.

Monk is a goner unless they can clear 20M in cap space. They don’t have his full bird right so most they can offer is 4/78m. He will get more than that imo.
