The Sacramento Kings spent Thursday’s trade deadline shedding past mistakes. George Hill was signed to the largest per-year contract in Kings history just 7 short months ago, and was traded for cap relief and a 2020 second round pick. Georgios Papagiannis was the 13th overall pick in 2016 and had a $2.4 million option exercised by the Kings a mere 3 months ago. He was waived on Thursday. Malachi Richardson was the 22nd pick in the 2016 draft. He was traded for Bruno Caboclo on Thursday. Caboclo has played 113 total minutes in his 4-year NBA career.
