Bibby was also involved in talks with the Cavaliers, Pacers, Nuggets, and Sixers.
Bibby recently came back from a injury a month ago, and now has to deal with being traded to a new team in a different conference.
With the move, Sacramento obviously becomes more youthful and defensive minded.
Williams is a solid player and a physical rebounder that brings a nothing gets past me mentality.
Johnson is also a good veteran point guard who brings leadership and tenacity to the Kings.ย He was instrumental in helping the Indiana Pacers reach their short lived success in the '05-'06 season.
Bibby was averaging 13.5 PPG and 5.0 APG in only 15 games this season.
The Eastern Conference becomes better with the arrival of Bibby, who probably now becomes the 5th best point guard in the conference.
Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, and Al Horford are sure to benefit fromย Bibby's acquisition and look for their numbers to go on the rise. Bibby will most likely suit up for the Atlanta Hawksย in the coming weeksย after the all-star break.
With Bibby's departure, the Kings may look to hold on to Ron Artest, who now arguably becomes the team's best scoring option.
Sacramento is fielding offers for Artest. Denver has the best chance of landing the lockdown defender.
The clear winner in this deal for Bibby is Atlanta.
