Schroeder changed teams again? Schroeder can join the Kings through signing and the Pistons won a special transaction case of 23 million

According to league sources on Thursday, the Sacramento Kings will get veteran point guard Dennis Schroeder, who decided to join the team in the free agent market through the Detroit Pistons' sign-on and then trade. After the free agent market opened, the Pistons had a long discussion with the Kings on expanding Schroeder's trade, but both sides finally gave up this idea. Sources said the Kings have been seeking to send off double-seater Malik Monk in the trading market, and negotiations between the two sides revolved around incorporating Monk into the deal when the free market opened on Tuesday.

Because the transaction plan involving Monk failed to take shape immediately, it was previously reported that Schroeder will directly sign the King with a three-year, $45 million contract. Sources revealed that Sacramento has always sought to maintain salary flexibility when discussing the Monk trading plan, so it restarted its sign-on and then exchange program with the Pistons.

Through this deal, the Kings will use a $16.8 million trade special case to absorb Schroder's salary of $14 million in the new season - the exception originated from the deal that sent Kevin Xuert to the Chicago Bulls before the end of this season's trading date (Shert involved the three-party deal between Deron Fox and the San Antonio Spurs at the time).

Finance, the Kings still retain a middle-class special case of $14.1 million in the free market this summer, but due to the acquisition of players by signing first and then switching, the team's salary will be strictly limited to the first tycoon line.

The Pistons are in a special position in this trade. By signing first and then trading, if you choose not to recover any salary, Detroit can receive nearly $23 million in player contracts, or get a special transaction case that is equivalent to Schroeder's salary in the new season.

For Pistons President Trajan Langdon, this is a busy free market window. In the first few days, the team successively introduced LeVere and Duncan Robinson to replace Schroeder, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Malik Beasley who left the team. Among them, Robinson signed first and then replaced by the Miami Heat, which also made the Pistons' salary reach the first-rate richest line.

Even with hard cap restrictions, the Pistons still have sufficient salary space to fill the roster. At present, details of the Kings and the Pistons sign-on and then exchange transactions about Schroeder are still being finalized, and this transaction is likely to expand - especially the Kings are still actively exploring Monk's trading plan.

It is not clear whether the Pistons will accept the 27-year-old defender. Previously, the transaction discussion involving Monk in the sign-on and then exchange negotiations between the two sides had stalled.
