If you are the Kings with no cap room and only the MLE to replace Holmes...would you rather lose him for nothing or take back two years of Powell?

I would only take two years of Powell if draft assets are attached. No way Powell contract has at least neutral value on the market. Even if they lose Holmes they have MLE to fill the hole.

And let's not forget - Sacramento has Bagley first. Unless they decide to move on, it would actually make sense for them to start him as was the plan all along before Bagley was continously injured and Holmes surprised everyone and not look for another starting center. If they decide to move on from Bagley, they have to trade him and might be he still has enough value to bring in a decent piece.
