NBA Trade Rumors: Kings' Kevin Huerter, Trey Lyles Available Ahead of 2025 Deadline

The Sacramento Kings are aggressively searching for some upgrades ahead of the Feb. 6 NBA trade deadline.

Shooting guard Kevin Huerter and power forward Trey Lyles are both "widely known to be available from the Kings," according to NBA Insiders Marc Stein and Jake Fischer.

Lyles has been sidelined since Nov. 25 with a Grade 1 calf strain suffered in the second quarter of the Kings' 130-109 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The 6'9" forward signed a two-year, $16 million contract with the Kings in 2023, making his $8 million expiring deal easier to move.

In his nine seasons in the league, Lyles has played for five teams. With the 13-13 Kings this season, he is averaging 5.4 points and 3.9 rebounds while shooting 36.3 percent from the field.

Huerter has also been sidelined and is listed as day-to-day after suffering a shoulder injury in last Thursday's 111-109 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. He is owed $16.8 million this season and $17.9 million in the final year of his deal in 2025-26.

The former Atlanta Hawk is averaging 9.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists this season with the Kings while shooting 31.1 percent from behind the three-point line.

The two former first-round picks could shape up to be part of a trade package in exchange for a veteran to complement stars De'Aaron Fox, DeMar DeRozan and Domantas Sabonis.
