Best case scenario for Jazz are the Celtics getting Butler or Cousins. Would take them out of Hayward market.

Not necessarily. Both those guys make less than 20m a year. IT doesn't make ****. They only have 70 on the books for next year and most of those guys they won't be afraid to move. If they get Butler Bradley probably moves so their salary is at worst 80 m. If they mave crowder they could pay Hayward 30. There's a way for them to have their cake and eat it too.

Cousins is up for a contract next year bud, he is going to make max money and a lot of it.

I dont think Hayward would join them if they had Butler at his position, but maybe.

@WojVerticalNBA
Kings have had recent discussions with New Orleans on Cousins, sources tell @TheVertical. Sac still debating Cousins' future internally.

Sources: Pelicans and Kings have discussed a DeMarcus Cousins trade for Buddy Hield and multiple Pelicans first-round draft picks.

@aaronbruski
I’m told that the Kings have been willing to listen for godfather offers, which is normal. Strong belief is he is staying and re-signing

@aaronbruski
Sources quickly shot down any Hield and pair of first rounders talk.

It's a pity. I think they could have gotten much more than that last year with the rumoured trade with the Lakers?
 
@WojVerticalNBA
Sources: Divac delivered to owner Sunday what front office believes are two best Cousins trade proposals. Of course, @Vivek has final say.

@SteveBHoop
According to text from league exec, Celtics have NOT been one of the teams trying to get DeMarcus Cousins today.

[MENTION=1573]Chris[/MENTION]MannixYS
Kings have not been seeking equal value in Cousins deal, source tells @TheVertical. Young talent, draft picks, expiring contracts primarily.
 
Somehow I bet it's the Lakers. They are desperate to be a playoff team next year. Best way to do that: trade for a super-star and hope having him attracts more free agents. The question is how much are they willing to give up?
 
Lakers reportedly where in talks with the Kings today, but aren't anymore. So I guess it's NOLA and one other team?
