In a puzzling season for the Sacramento Kings, one of the most confusing aspects has been Keon Ellis. Despite being a potentially strong 3&D player, he struggles to find minutes. But in the first two games of 2026, Ellis has been on fire, showing the Kings what they're losing if they trade him.

The league has been in the midst of trade season since December 15, but there has been little movement from any team. There are almost endless rumors, and likely a lot of conversations happening behind the scenes. Still, nothing concrete has happened yet.
