Now, we have an additional development in the situation with Gay and the Kings. Gay’s contract status, with an option to opt-out after the coming season, has surely affected how he is viewed on the trade market. Reports regarding what the Kings would want in a trade for Gay have varied, but it’s pretty clear the asking price has been too high for interested teams. But trade rumors surrounding another veteran, forward Rudy Gay, are also not new and are sure to resurface with the start of the 2016-17 season approaching. The Sacramento Kings are a dysfunctional organization, and Rudy Gay apparently can’t wait to leave.Īs the Sacramento Kings continue to vastly underachieve, trade rumors surrounding center DeMarcus Cousins will linger indefinitely.
