DeRozan’s Exit Could Save Kings Millions | Sacramento Kings News

The Sacramento Kings just saved over $15 million by waiving DeMar DeRozan — a move that avoids luxury tax and clears cap space for their rebuild. Acquired via sign-and-trade on a $74M, 3-year deal with only $10M guaranteed, DeRozan is now a free agent with teams like Detroit and Toronto circling. His new contract could trigger a “set-off” that slashes the Kings’ dead money — even more if he signs for a veteran minimum or uses exceptions. A bidding war would be ideal for Sacramento, especially as LeBron’s next move reshapes the landscape. Fans should cheer — DeRozan’s market could be the Kings’ financial lifeline.
