Western Conference club puts stars up for trade

According to Evan Sideri, the team is ready to consider trading several key players if an acceptable offer is made.
Players available for trade include Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, Keon Ellis, Malik Monk and Dennis Schroder.
Among these, Ellis attracts the most attention and 10 teams show serious interest.
The Kings are coming off a disappointing season and sit 14th in the Western Conference with a 14-33 record, so management is looking to “reboot” the team. Sacramento is specifically exploring options to acquire young talent and is eyeing RJ Barrett and Jonathan Kuminga as part of a potential rebuilding strategy.
The Kings are aiming to make a full-blown sale at the trade deadline.

Antetokounmpo says how much time he could miss due to injury
Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo He injured his right calf in the match against the Denver Nuggets, resulting in his team’s defeat with a score of 100:102.
With about 40 seconds left in the game, during a quick attack, Janis suddenly stopped and caught his lower right leg. He quickly left the field and went to the locker room and returned to the bench seconds before the end of the game.
After the match, Janis confirmed that he felt pain throughout the match and had to stop:
“It doesn’t matter when I felt it. It doesn’t matter. I couldn’t finish the match. I felt it for most of the game, but I didn’t want to stop. Finally, I couldn’t move anymore and had to stop. Throughout the game, the pain got worse and worse as I played.”
Antetokounmpo estimated he would be out for four to six weeks.
“The next step will probably be an MRI tomorrow. After the MRI, they’ll probably tell me that I’ve torn something in my calf or shoulder. I’ll probably be given a protocol where I won’t play for 4 to 6 weeks.”
I will try to come back from now on with my experience in the NBA. This will probably be late February – early March. Hopefully the team will be in a position where we can at least go to the play-ins or play-offs and we will work every day and try to get better,” Janis added.
Janis finished the game with 22 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists.
Antetokounmpo has missed eight games this season due to a calf injury and looks set to face a similar injury this time around.
Giannis, who missed a total of 16 games this season due to his injury, averaged 28.3 points, 9.9 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game.
