Well this wasn't exactly a secret or anything.
The Sacramento Kings must really dislike the upcoming draft class, because they've done everything short of posting a Kijiji ad for the eighth pick.
Andy Katz of ESPN is reporting that they are fielding offers from three teams for the pick. The return, of course, would have to be favorable to what the Kings expect out of the four draftees they have pegged at the eighth spot.
This news comes on the heels of other reports from ESPN on Tuesday, which linked the Kings to both Detroit Pistons forward Josh Smith and Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo. If a deal is to be consummated, it wouldn't be a surprise for the Kings to ship off their pick.
