Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic is a target of the Sacramento Kings according to The Athletic’s Sam Amick.
Here’s what Amick said on Vucevic and the rumored interest of the Kings for potentially acquiring the Montenegrin big guy during a Q&A session with readers.
Per Clutch Points:
Tim T: “Thanks for taking the time to do this, Sam. Multiple folks in the local Sacramento media have claimed that the Kings have serious interest in maxing Nikola Vucevic. Have you heard the same?”
Amick: “I know he’s a target, and I know that it will likely require the max. So, I suppose that’s a confirmation. And thanks for joining me, Tim.”
Vucevic will hit the free agency coming off his first All-Star campaign and most productive season of his career. The 28-year-old player is averaging 20.8 points, 12.1 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game in the season so far, leading the Magic to playoffs contention. Orlando is currently eighth in the Eastern Conference standings with 37-38.
