Spurs' Jordan McLaughlin: Dealt to San Antonio
Rotowire
The Spurs acquired McLaughlin and guard De'Aaron Fox from the Kings on Sunday in a three-team trade also involving the Bulls, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The Kings receive guard Zach LaVine (personal), forward Sidy Cissoko, first-round picks in 2025, 2027, 2031 and three second-round picks (one in 2025, two in 2028), while the Bulls will acquire center Zach Collins, guards Tre Jones and Kevin Huerter and their own 2025 first-round pick back from San Antonio. McLaughlin, who had averaged just 6.8 minutes per game in 28 appearances this season, will face an uphill battle for any sort of consistent role with the Spurs, who have Fox and Chris Paul on hand to cover nearly all of the available minutes at point guard.

Rotowire
McLaughlin amassed one rebound, one assist and one steal over three minutes during Friday's 140-113 win over the Spurs.

Kings' Jordan McLaughlin: Suffers ankle sprain
Rotowire
McLaughlin sustained a Grade 2 right ankle sprain during offseason workouts and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Fresh off inking a one-year deal over the summer, McLaughlin's start to the season will not be what he had in mind. When healthy, he is expected to compete with Keon Ellis for the backup point guard role behind De'Aaron Fox. The 28-year-old McLaughlin shot a career-best 47.2 percent from three-point range across 56 regular-season games in Minnesota last season to go along with 3.5 points and 1.3 rebounds across 11.2 minutes.
Kings' Jordan McLaughlin: Gets one-year deal from Sacramento
Rotowire
McLaughlin agreed to a one-year contract with the Kings on Sunday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
The 28-year-old spent the past five seasons with Minnesota and averaged 3.5 points, 2.0 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 11.2 minutes while shooting a career-best 47.2 percent from three-point range in 56 regular-season games in 2023-24. McLaughlin gives Sacramento an experienced reserve option at point guard behind De'Aaron Fox, though he won't necessarily be a part of head coach Mike Brown's rotation every night if the Kings' staff feels that rookie first-round Devin Carter is capable of initiating the offense when Fox is off the floor.

McLaughlin's future in Minnesota is unclear as he will head into the offseason as an unrestricted free agent. The 28-year-old has seen a decline in production every year since he got into the league after five seasons with the Timberwolves. McLaughlin averaged 3.5 points, 2.0 assists, 1.3 rebounds and 0.6 steals across a career-low 11.2 minutes in 56 regular-season games this season.
