DeMar DeRozan Leads Kings Against Raptors

DeMar DeRozan has made a significant impact on the Sacramento Kings since his acquisition in July, scoring at least 20 points in each of his first six games, including a season-high 33 points in a recent overtime loss to the Toronto Raptors. His scoring average stands at 25.3 points per game, making him the team's leading scorer. DeRozan's addition has also improved the Kings' free-throw shooting, as the team recently shot 86.7% from the line, a notable increase from last season's league-low percentage. The Kings, who have won three straight games, are currently on a four-game road trip and will face the Miami Heat next. De'Aaron Fox has praised DeRozan's skill set, highlighting his effectiveness in drawing defensive attention and creating opportunities for teammates. As the Kings prepare for their next game, they aim to build on their recent success, bolstered by DeRozan's performance and experience.
