NBA 2K19 MyGM: 30 Franchise-Saving Trades You Must Make

5. Sacramento Kings

Anthony Davis NBA 2K19
2K Sports

Players Out (position, rating, contract value/length, age):

Zach Randolph (PF, 78, $11.69m/1, 37), Iman Shumpert (SG, 72, $11.01m/1, 28)

Players In (any):

'19 1st round draft picks.

Why:

A dreadful off-season has left the malfunctioning Kings with little hope of doing anything other than making up the numbers in the west again, but their future need not be grim, provided you're smarter than Vlade Divac.

Blessed with a boatload of expiring contracts but no 2019 first round draft pick, MyGM players should have plenty of opportunities to address the problem. Randolph is particularly expendable, as he plays the same position as Marvin Bagley III, and making this move should help lead Sacramento towards better days.
