Kings pave way for Salmons: The Houston Rockets are close to an agreement to acquire Ron Artest from the Sacramento Kings, two people familiar with the negotiations told the Associated Press. The Rockets will give up guard Bobby Jackson, who played for the Kings from 2000-05, and another player -- likely rookie forward Donte Greene, according to two NBA people who confirmed the deal, but spoke on condition of anonymity because no official announcement had been made. When the trade becomes official, John Salmons will be penciled in as Artest's replacement at small forward.

Fantasy Analysis

This is it. This is what we've been waiting for. Salmons is going to get a chance to start, hopefully for the entire season. Salmons has shown flashes of brilliance over his first two seasons in Sacramento when given the chance to play. He averaged 17.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 41 games as a starter last season. That also included just under a three-pointer per game, a 49.7 field-goal percentage and 1.6 steals per game. Can you say Rotisserie stud? This trade turns Salmons into one of our favorite breakout candidates.
