Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype reported the Sacramento Kings have been busy this offseason, making exploratory calls on the Utah Jazz's Lauri Markkanen and Brandon Ingram of the New Orleans Pelicans, with another star player also piquing their interest.

"[Kyle] Kuzma's contract is viewed as highly attractive to teams across the league looking to improve in the short term and preserve financial flexibility to round out their rosters."

Kuzma is owed $64.43 million over the next three seasons on a descending contract, per the insider, which makes him more attractive to teams looking to get better fast.
