Kings reportedly interested in Hawks’ Jeremy Lin

NBA trade rumor season is heating up with the deadline less than a month away. The latest, from the excellent Marc Stein, is that the Kings could be looking to add another playmaker in veteran Hawks’ guard Jeremy Lin.

The Kings, meanwhile, would appear to be a natural destination for Lin, given Sacramento's push to make the playoffs for the first time since 2006 and the expiring contracts it has available to swap in Zach Randolph and Kosta Koufos

On the surface, it’s a little odd that the Kings would be looking to add yet another guard on a roster where the three best players (De’Aaron Fox, Buddy Hield and Bogdan Bogdanovic) are all guards, but I can see where the interest is coming from.
