Kings Trade DeRozan to Rebuild | Sacramento Kings News

Despite averaging over 20 points a game, his role as a third option didn’t elevate the team, especially after a shaky final season. The Kings, hoping to clear space for young talent like Nique Clifford and Emanuel Sharp, avoided a trade and instead opted to let him go — with only $10M guaranteed, they can spread it out to save cash. DeRozan, a professional with no drama, is now free to join a contender, while the Kings pivot toward a younger, more controllable future.
