We have finally reached the NBA trade deadline.
The Athletic’s Sam Amick joined The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross on Thursday morning to share his intel on the latest happenings around the league, discuss the Sacramento Kings’ plans, and much more.
Let’s dive in!
Topics Discussed
- Amick says that he has conflicting reports on Sacramento’s interest in Kyle Kuzma
- There are “a lot of role players” that the Kings have been linked to, including Miami’s Caleb Martin.
- Amick says that the Jazz are in a good spot following their recent deals
- Per reports, Miles Bridges has decided to veto any trade and remain in Charlotte
- Will fringe-play-in teams like the Atlanta Hawks or Chicago Bulls look to make moves before the deadline?
- Sam thinks the Bulls are leaning toward standing pat
- How much of an impact does the new CBA have on teams attempting to make trades?
- What are the Golden State Warriors’ plans?
- Is Andrew Wiggins likely to be moved?
- “I think it’s going to be a quiet deadline for the Warriors.”
- Amick expects the Los Angeles Lakers to have a silent deadline as well
- Will the Kings make any moves?
- “I’d be surprised by zero [moves]… I can’t imagine being a front office guy who spends three months exploring the market, turning over these rocks, doing this analysis and it leading to nothing.”
