There are increasingly loud rumbles around the NBA about which teams are interested in making a deal before the Feb. 10 trade deadline, and with that comes a new rendition of intriguing trade scenarios from Bleacher Report’s Dan Favale. In it, he has the Boston Celtics landing sharpshooter Buddy Hield from the Sacramento Kings.
As with all such potential trades imagined by analysts, the devil is in the details. Due to Hield’s lofty $23.1 million salary, Favale notes, Josh Richardson and Juan Hernangomez would likely be part of the package departing Boston for a new home in California with the Kings.
Favale’s logic is sound.
