There are no stopping NBA trade rumors to always involve Sacramento Kings superstar DeMarcus Cousins in the picture. After being in the rumor mills for the past several weeks, reports are floating again that he is being targeted by the Orlando Magic with Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon as the trade piece.
Cousins has been the talk of the town since being open on his discontentment feeling about how the Kings organization is handling the team right now. Despite putting up imposing stats of 27.5 points, 9.6 rebounds and 1.0 block per game early this season, many believe that Boogie will ask the Kings to trade him and it might happen before the February trade deadline.
And now, reports are emerging that the Kings will trade Boogie and that the Magic is being spotted as a trade partner. According to Sportsrageous, one anonymous NBA GM has said that the Kings will rebuild now and move the hot-headed Cousins to an another team. And since the Magic is in need of an offensive big man down low, getting Boogie would answer what they wish for.
The NBA trade scenario is suggesting that the Orlando Magic will send Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon to the Sacramento Kings in exchange for DeMarcus Cousins. Though the Magic will risk of losing their two young players but still having Cousins would give them an All-Star caliber type of player that could lead them to the playoffs.
On the separate report of iTech Post, aside from the Magic, the Los Angeles Lakers, Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are showing interest in acquiring the big fellow from "Sactown". The rumor mills came huge when Sacramento King minority owner Shaquille O'Neal exposed that he is being told that Kings will move on a different course if the situation with the team will get worse.
Shaq comments heat up speculation that he seems to be implying the relationship of Cousins to the Kings management. And since the Kings are tired of pampering Boogie, the Lakers, Cavs and Warriors looks to be willing to take the risk and acquire the big man.
Nevertheless, these NBA trade rumors are still speculation at this point and none of the teams involved have confirmed it. But will the Orlando Magic agree to trade Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon for Sacramento Kings DeMarcus Cousins?
