Sean Cunningham: Russell Westbrook was all smiles during today's Fan Fest, his first introduction to Sacramento since signing with the Kings just days ago. An open practice, a mini-dunk off, halfcourt shots (won by Devin Carter) & lots of chemistry building with the team & fans.

Devin Carter's days with the franchise appear to be dwindling. He might have been the 13th overall pick out of Providence as recently as the 2024 NBA Draft, but the front office leaders who made that selection (Monte McNair and Wes Wilcox) are no longer in Sacramento. Sources say Carter's name has already featured in trade chatter throughout this offseason. Yet it could take awhile for an actual trade to materialize there.

Kuminga wants a fresh start with a new team and the Warriors have given him reason to question their commitment to him. He likes the opportunity the Kings have presented, but the Warriors seem unwilling to accept a package featuring Devin Carter, Dario Saric and draft compensation, which could a protected first-round pick or multiple second-round picks. The Warriors would probably be quick to pull the trigger on a deal involving Keegan Murray or Keon Ellis. However, a source with knowledge of trade conversations told The Sacramento Bee that Murray and Ellis have not been discussed and both are considered off limits in talks for Kuminga.
Jonathan Kuminga, one of the marquee names remaining on the market, has been frequently linked to the Kings over the last several months, and recently met with Scott Perry and Doug Christie. The Kuminga to Sacramento rumors have taken many different forms, including a sign-and-trade. Sam Amick addressed the situation on the Warriors Plus Minus podcast today. There, Amick reported that the Warriors “weren’t interested in Carter or DeRozan. As of a couple weeks ago, the Kings weren’t willing to pay Kuminga into the $20 million range (AAV).”
Matt George: On the Kings/Russell Westbrook front: Both parties have been talking and have had mutual interest since free agency began. That's been well known. From what I gather, the Kings are still looking to move a player like Devin Carter or Malik Monk before they can bring Westbrook in. The Kings have a log jam at the guard position and very little financial flexibility to work with.
