[max215]

This is unexpected.

Sacramento has been engaging in trade talks on All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins in recent days, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Here we go...

DO IT DANNY!! (Just keep the BKN '17)

[esel1000]

Let's get him here!

[hpantazo]

If nothing else, at least this is excellence leverage in Butler/George talks

[jpd985]

Let's not get too excited, these are the Kings after all.

This is odd after boogie said hed resign and wanted his number in the rafters. I suspect sacremento is testing what they've got tbh

[Quetzalcoatl]

I imagine we'd have to give up BK17, I just hope we don't give up both BK picks, Brown, Zizic or Smart.  I also want to keep Crowder and Isaiah, because they're not really replaceable.  So BK 17, Rozier, Yabu, Amir, Bradley, Memphis 1st, Boston 2018 1st, some random seconds?  That's probably not enough, right?

And it gets weirder:

Kings have had recent discussions with New Orleans on Cousins, sources tell @TheVertical. Sac still debating Cousins' future internally.

What could New Orleans possibly offer?

this is just going to be a crazy week! LOL

A friend just told me the trade talks are with New Orleans (per Woj).  Very odd. What a legendary franchise.

Cousins is having by far the best statistical season of his career. Make it happen, Danny.

[Boris Badenov]

I guess this means we've officially entered the "crazy rumors from outer space" phase of pre-deadline chatter. It was only a matter of time.

[jambr380]

If Cousins is traded anywhere but the Cs, it's because Danny and Brad didn't want him.

This sure is turning into an interesting deadline.

Warren, Len, and a 1st per the highly reputable "Arizona Sports"

Lakers pick, Randle, Clarkson, Landy (salary dump) per Woj.  Vlade apparently pursued this one, too.

Haven't seen a Celtics rumor yet, but if the Kings are in pursuit I imagine a lot of teams are inquiring.
