DeMar DeRozan Fantasy Stats

Free-agent forward DeMar DeRozan has drawn interest from the Heat, Nuggets, Cavaliers, and Wizards, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports, citing Shams Charania. Sacramento waived DeRozan's $25.7 million expiring deal in July, with the six-time All-Star receiving the $10 million guaranteed portion. The 37-year-old remained productive last season, averaging 18.4 points, 4.1 assists, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.0 steals while shooting 49.7 percent from the field across 77 starts. His next landing spot will decide the fantasy angle. A team with a clearer scoring need could keep his usage afloat, while a contender bench role would cap his minutes and touches. Either way, limited threes and defensive stats cap the ceiling.

The Portland Trail Blazers were rumored to be interested in signing free-agent point guard DeMar DeRozan this offseason. According to Marc Stein, the Blazers are not exploring bringing in the veteran forward at this moment. The 36-year-old doesn't seem like he would be a great fit in Portland given their surplus of perimeter players. Even with Portland out of the sweepstakes, DeRozan is still reportedly drawing interest from the Heat, Nuggets, Wizards, and Cavaliers. Last season, DeRozan averaged 18.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 4.1 assists across 31.2 minutes per game in 77 contests with the Sacramento Kings. He's not the focal point of an offense anymore, but DeRozan could still help a contending team next season.

The Washington Wizards are reportedly showing interest in free-agent forward DeMar DeRozan, according to Shams Charania. The organization has had some conversations with DeRozan over the last few days. The veteran forward appears to be drawing interest from multiple teams, but the Wizards are the newest one to join the ranks. The 36-year-old is trending down, but can still be a viable contributor in 2026. This past season, DeRozan averaged 18.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 4.1 assists across 31.2 minutes per game with the Sacramento Kings. The Wizards have rookie AJ Dybantsa and Anthony Davis at the forward spots, so DeRozan would probably come off the bench. There's some 9-category value here, but the Wizards aren't a great fit on paper for the veteran forward.

Free-agent forward DeMar DeRozan has drawn interest from the Miami Heat and Golden State Warriors, per Evan Sidery, with both teams pivoting after missing on LeBron James. DeRozan, 36, would join a title contender at the veteran's minimum after the Kings waived him. He averaged 18.4 points, 4.1 assists, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.0 steals last season, down from 22.2 points the year prior. Any contender role trims his usage: Miami would slot him behind Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo, while Golden State would deploy him as a second-unit shot creator. His threes are limited, and the defensive numbers are only decent, but DeRozan's free-throw volume still matters in 9-category leagues. He would be more of a low-ceiling source of points, efficiency, and FT% than a true across-the-board producer, while his age leaves little dynasty appeal.

Free agent forward DeMar DeRozan is expected to decide soon after LeBron James settles his own market, per Evan Sidery, with teams that miss on James lined up to pursue the six-time All-Star as a fallback. Miami, Detroit, and Golden State have been mentioned elsewhere as possible suitors since the Kings waived him. DeRozan averaged 18.4 points, 4.1 assists, and 2.9 rebounds on 59.4 percent true shooting last season in Sacramento, a productive if fading line at 36. Redraft value hinges on landing spot and usage: a points-league piece with a thin nine-cat profile given few threes, light boards, and minimal defense. Keep his ranking loose until his role is set.

The Toronto Raptors have confirmed free-agent interest in a reunion with small forward DeMar DeRozan, Marc Stein reports. DeRozan reached the market after Sacramento waived him early in free agency, and the six-time All-Star remains productive, averaging 18.4 points, 4.1 assists, and 2.9 rebounds across 77 games last season. Toronto's cap sheet is tight enough that a veteran minimum is likely the only realistic offer, and DeRozan would slot behind Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett as a bench scorer, a role that would trim the usage that made him a fantasy staple in Sacramento. The roster picture is murkier still with Toronto's agreed-upon Kawhi Leonard trade on hold pending an NBA investigation. Sportsnet's Michael Grange has pushed back on the idea, calling a reunion unlikely given the cap and DeRozan's market elsewhere.

The Sacramento Kings are waiving forward DeMar DeRozan, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The sides reportedly worked together on the move after exploring trade options, leaving the six-time All-Star headed for free agency. DeRozan still has fantasy value as a scoring and free-throw contributor after averaging 18.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 4.1 assists across 77 starts last season. In Sacramento, his exit should free up usage for Zach LaVine and Malik Monk, while Keegan Murray and De'Andre Hunter have a clearer path to forward minutes.

Sacramento Kings forward DeMar DeRozan (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. DeRozan will miss his third game in a row due to a lingering hamstring issue. This game is the regular-season finale, so DeRozan has played his final game of the 2025-2026 campaign. He averaged 18.4 points, 4.1 assists, and 2.9 rebounds across 31.2 minutes of action across 77 games. The absence of DeRozan should mean Daeqwon Plowden and Nique Clifford will take on larger roles in the rotation. Both players are looking like possible DFS targets after posting 20-point performances without DeRozan on Friday.

Sacramento Kings guard/forward DeMar DeRozan (hamstring) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors. He will sit out due to right hamstring soreness, marking just his third absence of the season. With DeRozan sidelined, Malik Monk and Doug McDermott should see expanded roles, while Daeqwon Plowden is expected to enter the starting lineup. Monk profiles as the top fantasy option given his increased usage.

Sacramento Kings guard/forward DeMar DeRozan (hamstring) will play on Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran sat out Sunday's loss to Brooklyn due to a hamstring injury, but the team has removed him from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's action. It's a special matchup for DeRozan against the team he represented for nine years at the start of his career. Due to injuries, the Kings have very little quality left on the roster, so DeRozan should have free rein on offense. He has averaged 27.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 7.0 assists over his last two outings.
