But they still won 73 games and are perfectly positioned for a redemption march in 2016-17. Why would Barnes, a restricted free agent, [...]

Rajon Rondo is playing through the tail end of his one-year deal with the Sacramento Kings. He will enter free agency this summer, at which point, after the disastrous season Sacramento has had, he’ll most definitely leave. Or maybe not.

The Kings have had nothing short of a roller coaster season, and that fortune for the franchise doesn’t appear to have an end in sight. Especially if the same faces are coming back. They’ll probably try to unsuccessfully trade Cousins this season, and who knows what the rest of the roster will look like. Another [...]

A few days ago, we reported that the Cavs had interest in Andrew Bynum.
