The six-time All-Star makes the Kings another team to watch next season and beyond in a loaded Western Conference.
from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, DeRozan is heading to the Kings in a three-team sign-and-trade deal that will send Harrison Barnes to the San Antonio Spurs and Chris Duarte and two second-round picks, as well as cash considerations, to the Chicago Bulls. The Kings are also expected to send the Spurs a 2031 unprotected pick swap as part of the deal.
For DeRozan, it's an opportunity to fill a missing piece for the Kings' Western Conference contention hopes alongside up-and-coming stars De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis.that exceeded the full mid-level exception of $13 million, which is all that interested teams were willing to offer prior his agreement with the Kings. In the end, DeRozan got the pay day that he was looking for in what is likely his final lucrative multi-year contract in his career.
It's a coup for DeRozan to land in a competitive situation in Sacramento, and the signing of the star wing will certainly make the Kings another team to watch in the Western Conference next season and beyond.Mike McDaniel is a writer on the Breaking & Trending News Team at Sports Illustrated, where he has worked since January 2022.
