    Barnes would be a great add.

    They're playing him too much. With his injury history, you have to be smarter with his minutes. 34 minutes, 35 minutes (2nd night of a back to back), 39 minutes in 3 of the last 4 before today. He played 37 minutes in one a few games before that. I cap him at 30 minutes and be a hell of a lot smarter on back to backs.

    Kings keep sucking and doing just fine w/o Fox - I think it's worth a look.

    Fox's PnR ability would do for the Lakers what CJ has done for the Pelicans offense. He just opens the whole court up for Zion with his ability to create and takes bigs off the dribble

    He's at 38% from 3 this year and teams will definitely not sag off him like Russ

    Are there any other shooters that I can think of besides Hield and Gordon that we can look at? Rozier, Van Fleet are also in price range ($18-20 million ish), but I'd rather just start Reaves, IMO.

    I'm guessing probably McDermott, too? Any other suggestions.

    Barnes + Monk seems much more likely and a better fit for us, given they can shoot.

    both started the season horribly for them.

    Monk is unplayable in the playoffs because of his defense. Probably why the Lakers always preferred HIeld over the other Kings. WIth Turner and AD, it's easier to hide a bigger like HIeld on defense. Monk just gets roasted by either change of pace guys like Poole or stronger guards

    Clippers can't play 13 deep, so maybe Kennard?

    If the Nets situation is this rocky at the deadline, maybe Harris or Curry?

    Evan Fournier in NYC.

    Hayward + Rozier seems the best fit after Turner/Hield if Hayward is healthy.

    there's also Duncan Robinson at Miami who at this point would probably give us draft compensation to take on his contract. But are we that desperate?

    Kennard can shoot. That's for sure. Can he defend?

    I do like Fournier. Forgot about him.

    I like Hayward when he's on the floor and Rozier.

    Duncan Robinson? I'd pass.
