They get rights to overseas player too. If that includes Saric, that could be a pretty good move.

who sac? That would be weird for them to get extra when they need to give extra

So Stauskus for 2 large contracts?

I'm not sure if that is a good enough return. I mean Landry and especially thompson are signed for the next few years.

Hearing the Sixers have also acquired the rights to at least one Sacto draft pick in this trade. Digging further.

I'd be shocked if they got Saric in the deal. I highly doubt it.

Ellis would be horrible for Sacramento in my opinion.  Better for Indiana.

That's how you use cap space as a rebuilding team, folks.

If they get an unprotected Sacto 1st that is a heck of a pull. Nothing I'd rather have the rights to

Bet they end up with Mcgee in Sacramento as well. They are doing nice job of freeing money so they can surrounds cousins with a good supporting team.

Sixeras appear to become !masters of the salary dump foe other teams while contnuing to accumulate draft choices.  Will be interested to see who the overaeas players are and what draft choice they got.

Sixers will receive a protected 1st-round pick from the Kings, and swap rights w/ Sacto in the 1st round of two other drafts, sources say.

I bet the swap rights never get enforced.

By acquiring 3 crappy players.

That's a lot for a cap dump.
