Kings Trade Monk, Ellis for Lakers' Assets
Update: 2025-12-27
Description
As the NBA trade deadline approaches, the Sacramento Kings are considering a deal that could significantly reshape their roster. According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, dynamic guard Malik Monk and Keon Ellis are on the block, with the Kings potentially receiving a top-eighteen protected first-round pick, Rui Hachimura, and rookie Dalton Knecht from the Lakers. This move could help the Kings clear cap space, add draft capital, and restart their rebuild, despite the loss of homegrown talent. Meanwhile, the Lakers could benefit from Monks bench contributions, especially with Austin Reaves sidelined by a calf injury.
