DeRozan Heading to Sacramento
Kings Make Splash in Free Agency with DeRozan Acquisition
Veteran Guard Signs Three-Year, $74 Million Deal
In a major move that has sent shockwaves through the NBA, the Sacramento Kings have acquired All-Star guard DeMar DeRozan via a three-year, $74 million sign-and-trade deal that includes moving. The deal, which was first reported by The Athletic's Shams Charania, is the most significant free-agent signing for the Kings in the Sacramento era.
DeRozan, a six-time NBA All-Star, spent the last three seasons with the Chicago Bulls. He averaged 27.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.9 assists per game during that time, establishing himself as one of the league's most consistent and prolific scorers.
The Kings have been actively pursuing DeRozan for weeks, and their patience has paid off. The veteran guard will bring a wealth of experience and leadership to a young and hungry Kings team that is looking to make a playoff push in the upcoming season.
