7. Rudy Gay
Potential trade: Luol Deng and Chris Andersen for Rudy Gay
It’s no secret that Rudy Gay is on the trade block. Linked to a multitude of trade rumors, the Kings are listening to all offers for the 29-year-old University of Connecticut product. Averaging a career high 21.1 points and 6.9 rebounds last year, Gay is a prolific scorer who can be added directly in place for Deng in the starting lineup. While the Kings would be loaded with some extra cap space in the summer, the Heat wouldn’t as Gay has three years left on his contract, hurting their likelihood of engaging in free agency. Still, the Heat would get a quality scorer in Gay which would help them improve from their 29th placed team scoring rank (95.9 points per game).
