NBA Trade Rumors: Cavaliers’ Jarrett Jack Drawing Interest From Sacramento Kings, Brooklyn Nets

The Sacramento Kings reportedly join the Brooklyn Nets as potential suitors for Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jarrett Jack ahead of the NBA trade deadline.

Sacramento is the latest team believed to have interest in acquiring Jack.

"Sacramento, I'm told, is another team that has engaged in talks with Cleveland about Brooklyn backcourt target Jarrett Jack," ESPN's Marc Stein tweeted on Tuesday.

Jack hasn't provided Cleveland with the type of scoring off the bench they'd hoped for when they signed him to a four-year, $25 million contract in July. He's averaging just 8.5 points and 3.7 assists per game this season, a notable drop off from his numbers over the last two seasons with New Orleans and Golden State.

Brooklyn was also reported to be interested in Jack.

"League sources say Nets have interest in Cavs' Jarrett Jack," ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk tweeted on Monday. "One source says Jason Terry for Jack could be a possibility before deadline."

Trading for Terry and the one year he has left on his contract would untether Cleveland from Jack, who ex-general manager Chris Grant signed, and free up future salary cap space.

Ken Berger of CBS Sports seemingly confirmed Brooklyn's interest in Jack.

"Jack has one more year than Terry plus a $500K guarantee in '16-'17," Berger tweeted on Monday. "Nets like Jack for short-term help but could also get a pick out of it."

The trade deadline is on Thursday, Feb. 20 at 3:00 p.m. ET.
