NBA Trade Rumors: Rudy Gay Heading To Indiana Pacers Or San Antonio Spurs? Kings To Trade Him For Monta Ellis?

One of the NBA teams who are frequently associated to the trade rumors is Sacramento Kings. According to reports, Kings should trade Rudy Gay to San Antonio Spurs or Indiana Pacers. Why?

According to Patrick Malin from The All Out Sports Network, San Antonio Spurs is financially tight in the upcoming NBA season. However, trading for Rudy Gay could provide the team numerous benefits, Sports Rageous reported.

Malin suggests that adding Rudy Gay to Spurs' roster could provide the NBA team a huge advantage, especially that Spurs struggles with their forward position. In addition, Tim Duncan just retired from his NBA career and the team needs to replace him. The team already added Paul Gasol to their roster via free agency. LaMarcus Aldridge and Kawhi Leonardo, Tony Parker and Gasol will be the center of offense for San Antonio.

If San Antonio Spurs will acquire Rudy Gay, they will surely bring him off the bench. The Kings' small forward would make a great backup to star forward Kawhi Leonard to improve Spurs' chances for the NBA title.

Aside from Spurs, other potential teams that Gay could land include Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder. However, according to NBA trade rumors, the Pacers has high chances of signing Gay this summer.

Per the Bitbag, Rudy Gay joins the roster of Sacramento Kings in hopes of rebuilding the team. Unfortunately, Kings keeps on missing the playoffs year after year and the small forward is now considering wearing Pacer's jersey in the next NBA season.

The report notes that Indiana Pacers already have Paul George in their team and adding Rudy Gay to their roster will give the team a better chance for the NBA title. Gay is a reliable veteran who excels in defense and head coach Nate McMillan will surely want Gay for this.

Meanwhile, Sacramento Kings can trade for Monta Ellis to boost their offense. In addition, the Pacers shooting guard and point guard is sure to improve their score, which Kings needed desperately at the time.
