NBA Trade Rumors: Kings Trading Rudy Gay To Cavs, Team Prefers Iman Shumpert And Channing Frye Package Than Lakers' Young-William Offer?

Sacramento Kings and Rudy Gay will be parting ways soon. The two parties are regular in the NBA trade rumor mills and chances are high that this issue will soon be over. According to the latest NBA trade reports, Kings are planning to send Rudy Gay to Cleveland Cavaliers instead of Los Angeles Lakers because the deal is better with Cavs.

Parent Herald previously reported that Los Angeles Lakers and Sacramento Kings could do a trade involving Rudy Gay. Lakers are interested in Kings' small forward that they are willing to trade Nick Young and Lou Williams. ESPN suggests that this trade will work for both teams.

However, according to some sources, Sacramento Kings might not pursue the trade with the Lakers because a better deal is possible with Cleveland Cavaliers. Yibada reported that Kings and Cavs could do a trade involving Rudy Gay, where the former will receive Iman Shumpert and Channing Frye.

According to the report, Sacramento Kings want to acquire Cleveland Cavaliers' shooting guard Iman Shumpert and chances are high for Kings to get what they want. Reports have it that Cavs is planning to get rid of Shumpert after his alleged DUI charges.

In fact, Iman Shumpert has been linked to several teams in the NBA league already. There are reports claiming that Cavs is trading the shooting guard to Memphis Grizzlies for Vince Carter and Brandan Wright.

Parent Herald previously reported that Iman Shumpert could also land to New York Knicks. Despite the issues surrounding Shumpert, the player showed a great performance in the last NBA season, which makes him appealing in the trading block.

As for the Sacramento Kings and Cleveland Cavaliers trade involving Rudy Gay, the report has it that the former team might also need to part ways with Ben McLemore and Kosta Koufos.

Ben McLemore could fill Iman Shumpert's shooting guard position, especially that Cleveland Cavaliers are still working on a deal to re-sign their other SP, J.R. Smith. However, Cavs need to send more asset if they want to acquire McLemore.

The greatest deal for Cavs would be acquiring Rudy Gay. Gay's versatility and shooting prowess are what Cleveland Cavaliers need to match the strong roster of Golden State Warriors to score more when they face each other again in the NBA finals.
