Kings Waive DeRozan to Rebuild | Sacramento News

DeRozan, who averaged 20 points per game in Sacramento and is set to turn 37, will hit the free agent market with teams already circling.

DeRozan joined the Kings in a 2022 three-team trade and remains a sought-after veteran despite his age. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
