With the trade deadline looming, the Sacramento Kings have plenty of attainable assets.

It is abundantly clear that the Sacramento Kings need to do something about the roster. While there are a lot of talented players and fan-favorites in the organization, the Kings are not making any progress on a playoff run after a long drought.

They’ve tried for years to get the right pieces in place to set up a deep run and De’Aaron Fox appeared to be that guy. However, five years into his career, the Kings have not been much better than the decade prior to Fox’s arrival.

Once again, it is time for the Kings to kickstart a rebuild and find new building blocks. Getting younger and acquiring extra draft picks will get the Kings back on track eventually, right? RIGHT?!

This is the time to make a move, especially with so many stars set to become available. The Kings could be in the market for a star or could even get in on the selling in order to capitalize on draft picks once the dominos begin to fall.

Sacramento has a lot of players that can step up for playoff teams this season and beyond. The next two months are going to be exciting across the NBA but the Kings might be at the center of it all. Which of their assets are the most valuable?
