Getting back to Morant, though — what sort of trades make sense? The most hilarious outcome would be if Atlanta traded for him, but the Hawks presumably would already have him in uniform if there had been any interest. A quick canvas around the league indicated that some other potential trade partners also don’t quite add up as Morant destinations. Sacramento’s interest is lukewarm at best, according to a well-placed league source, with the Kings likely looking at a much deeper and longer rebuild than just throwing assets at a Morant deal. They seemingly only get mentioned here because of the “Vivek Ranadivé is crazy enough to do this” factor.
