The rumor mill is red hot with the NBA Draft finally kicking off on Wednesday. There could be a ton of trades during the draft and it sounds like the Sacramento Kings are a team to watch for. Sacramento might be interested in a deal with the Washington Wizards for Kyle Kuzma.

Washington has plenty of options on the table right now with multiple first-round picks. They may make some big moves as the franchise is in the middle of a rebuild. With that said, rumors are the Kings are potentially looking to make a move for Kyle Kuzma, according to NBA Insider Marc Stein.

“The Wizards are exploring every pathway to try to stockpile assets and, with three turns already in the first round at Nos. 2, 14, and 26, there is rising curiosity about their plans for Kyle Kuzma. Sacramento (No. 13) is known to be interested in the versatile Kuzma once again.”

It's not entirely clear what the Kings might be willing to give up in a deal. However, having the No. 13 pick overall could be enticing enough to the Wizards. However, Kuzma is a consistent forward in the league and Washington could receive multiple offers during the first round of the NBA Draft.

More rumors regarding the Kings should continue swirling as the organization aims to build a playoff-caliber team once again. Meanwhile, it should be a busy week for the Wizards as they aim to improve the roster amid a rebuild.

Is Kyle Kuzma a good fit for the Kings?

The Kings have a decent lineup but didn't find the same success this season as they did last year. However, Sacramento is a team that doesn't seem to be too far away from being a playoff contender every season. But should Kyle Kuzma be considered as one of those key additions?

In short, the answer is a resounding yes. Kuzma proved to be one of, if not, the best player for the Wizards last season. He finished the season averaging 22.2 points (career-high), 6.6 rebounds (career-high), and 4.2 assists per game. Those are numbers the Kings would love to have alongside De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis.

Kuzma would fit right in at either small forward or power forward for Sacramento. That would give the Kings four solid starters depending on how the coaching staff views the lineup. Overall, this would be a fantastic move for the Kings and they could then search for a shooting guard to improve the backcourt through free agency or the NBA Draft.
