#3. Jabari Parker

After a promising start to his career, Jabari Parker has had a rough couple of years in the league. He's been on 4 different teams and hasn't gotten enough opportunities to prove himself.

While Parker will most certainly pick up his $6.5 million player option, NBA trade rumors suggest that the Sacramento Kings might be looking to trade him to another team to get a backup point guard. They'll most likely have to include a future pick with Parker to sweeten the pot for the buyer.


#4. Kent Bazemore

Kent Bazemore's 10.3 points and 38.4% from 3 this season seem great on paper. But the veteran's 2.9 attempts per game aren't that impressive compared to the other high-volume shooters on the team like Bogdan Bogdanovic and Buddy Hield.

Bazemore is already 31 and his contributions didn't justify the $19.2 million salary he earned this season. The Sacramento Kings will likely pass on him in free agency as they continue to build around a younger roster.


#5. Corey Brewer

Corey Brewer signed multiple 10-day contracts with the Sacramento Kings this season before finally committing for the rest of the campaign in June 2020. The 34-year-old hardly played a role on the Kings' roster and went on to average just 1 point in the limited playing time that he got. Brewer is once again a free agent now, and the Kings don't have any reasons to bring him back next year.
