The Athletic‘s Sam Amick joined The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross on Thursday morning to talk about the Sacramento Kings’ bounce-back win over the Los Angeles Lakers, shed some light on the ongoing extension talks (or lack thereof) between the Kings and GM Monte McNair, contemplate Domantas Sabonis’ All-Star case, and more.

Topics discussed include:

  • Sam is hopeful that Sacramento can continue its strong play
  • Where are the Kings and Monte McNair in extension negotiations?
  • “There has been an informal expectation that [a McNair extension] will happen.”
  • Amick says that McNair does not yet have an extension in hand and questions if it actually is too early for the Kings to extend their general manager.
  • At this point, has Domantas Sabonis earned an All-Star nod?
  • Will it be difficult for De’Aaron Fox to crack the Western Conference All-Star roster?
  • Is the NBA trade market starting to take form? If so, which teams could be buyers and which team could be sellers?

Listen to The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross from 6 – 9 a.m. PST, Monday through Friday, on Sactown Sports 1140.
