The Kings are acquiring Pacers G Chris Duarte for two second-round picks, sources tell ESPN. Pacers will receive a 2028 second (via Dallas) and the Kings' 2030 second-round pick. Trade will be finalized today.

What's up with this trade? Seems weird for the Pacers to give up on this guy so quickly

Injuries pushed him off the ledge apparently. The fellow was a ROY candidate now he's hurting:C but I'm gonna say Rui rebounded so positive vibes.

Ah, didn't know he was hurt

We have SO many guards/small 3s, he's just not going to get playing time. He's behind Haliburtion, Nembhard, Mathurin, Hield, Nesmith and probably would split minutes with Sheppard. Duarte for Toppin straight up was proposed last year to the Knicks, and the Pacers effectively did that roster-spot-wise this year
