Why is DeMar DeRozan’s Fit with the Kings WEIRD?!

DeMar DeRozan being acquired by the Sacramento Kings was…. A bit surprising. He’s undoubtedly and talent upgrade on that roster and is still one of the best scorers in the NBA. But his fit seemed…. Odd. But why? Why is the fit weird? Is it the pace the Kings play with? The Bulls played very slow last year, 28th in the NBA in pace. But the Kings were barely in the top half of the league at 14th. Is it the spacing? The Kings light the beam because they have 3 shooters around De-Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis right? Well, those shooters: Malik Monk, Keegan Murray, and Kevin Huerter in particular, were mostly in the mid 30% range from 3. So what is it??? Well. I figured it out. It’s the area of the floor that DeRozan, Fox, and Sabonis all like to play through. And that’s the challenge Mike Brown will have to solve to make this “big 3” ish group of stars work.
