Could the Sacramento Kings make a move to try and land Ryan Anderson?
The Orlando Magic are doing their best to retain power forward Ryan Anderson now that Dwight Howard is likely all set to move on. The Sacramento Kings are willing to take a look too.
Sources confirm RFA Ryan Anderson visited the Kings today.

The Kings definitely do have the money and the cap space to throw at Anderson, and he is originally from Northern California, so he's a good local fit. The Magic do have the ability to match whatever deal Sacramento makes, and with Howard likely to be dealt soon Sacramento would probably have to go high to pry Anderson away from Orlando.
Of course, if the Kings get Anderson, they'll likely have to stop negotiating to try and sign Jason Thompson. Talks with Anderson probably mean that Sacramento will probably choose between one of the two power forwards to pair along with Thomas Robinson.
