Top DeMar DeRozan News

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Scores team-high 26 points

    DeRozan accumulated 26 points (6-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 13-14 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 35 minutes during Thursday's 115-110 loss to the Grizzlies.

    DeRozan didn't have his best performance from an efficiency perspective, but he still led the Kings in scoring in what turned out to be a tight loss. DeRozan has adjusted well to the Kings' offensive scheme and has hit the 20-point mark in three of his last four contests and 13 of his 18 appearances in the campaign.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Notches 16 points

    DeRozan had 16 points (6-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-111 victory over the Rockets.

    This was a quiet performance by DeRozan's standards, as he's had a tremendous season for the Kings. With 17 regular-season appearances under his belt, DeRozan has averaged 22.5 points, 4.4 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals, putting him on pace for a top-40 finish in nine-category formats.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Close to double-double in return

    DeRozan closed Sunday's 127-125 loss to the Spurs with 28 points (10-20 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and three steals in 37 minutes.

    DeRozan returned following a two-game absence due to a lower back injury, and the veteran had a solid showing in this loss against one of his former teams, hitting 50 percent of his shots from the field and finishing just two rebounds away from a double-double. DeRozan has had a few off games here and there, but for the most part, he's been a consistent scoring weapon for the Kings. The veteran has scored at least 20 points in 12 of his 16 appearances this season.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Probable to return Sunday

    DeRozan (back) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Spurs.

    DeRozan was able to fully participate in Saturday's practice and is trending towards a return from a two-game absence due to lower back inflammation. Over his first 15 regular-season games as a member of the Kings, DeRozan has averaged 22.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.5 steals over 36.3 minutes per contest.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Logs full practice Saturday

    DeRozan (back) logged a full practice Saturday and is trending toward being available for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    DeRozan missed the Kings' last two games after experiencing inflammation in his lower back muscles following Monday's game against the Thunder. However, the fact that he logged a full practice Sunday is a good sign of his potential availability to face the Spurs. DeRozan is averaging 22.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game this season.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Remains out Friday

    DeRozan (back) is out for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    DeRozan experienced inflammation in his lower back muscles after Monday's game against the Thunder, and he's set to miss a second straight game. His next chance to play will come Sunday against the Spurs. In his absence, Jae Crowder could remain in the starting lineup, while Kevin Huerter, Malik Monk and Doug McDermott could all see an uptick in minutes as well.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Out vs. Minnesota

    DeRozan is out for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves due to a lower back injury, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

    DeRozan experienced inflammation in his lower back muscles after Monday's game against the Thunder, during which he supplied 30 points (13-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal in 36 minutes, and the Kings are taking a cautious approach with him. Expect Kevin Huerter to start in his place, while Malik Monk, Colby Jones and Doug McDermott could all see extra minutes with DeRozan out.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Bounces back Monday

    DeRozan supplied 30 points (13-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 130-109 loss to the Thunder.

    DeRozan had scored 16 and 18 points in the losses to the Clippers and Nets, and even though the Kings pushed their losing run to four contests with this loss Monday, at least the veteran forward bounced back from a scoring perspective. DeRozan enjoyed an excellent start to the season, but his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction of late. He's averaging just 17.4 points per game while shooting 46.7 percent from the floor over his last five outings.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Rough shooting night in return

    DeRozan (lower back) tallied 16 points (6-19 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-8 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 36 minutes in Friday's 104-88 loss to the Clippers.

    The Kings didn't limit DeRozan's playing time in his return from a three-game absence due to the lower back injury, but the typically efficient forward struggled to find a rhythm both from the field and the free-throw line. In spite of the off night, DeRozan is still converting on 50.7 percent of his field goals and 82.3 percent of his free throws for the season, so fantasy managers shouldn't panic too much about the lack of efficiency in his first game back. He'll get Saturday off to recover before the Kings begin a back-to-back set Sunday versus the Nets.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Absent from injury report

    DeRozan (back) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Clippers.

    DeRozan participated in Thursday's practice and has officially been given the green light to play Friday evening after missing three games with a back injury. The team has yet to comment on whether the veteran forward will be on a minutes restriction, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see DeRozan ease back into action.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Intends to play Friday

    DeRozan (back) returned to practice Thursday and intends to play in Friday's game versus the Clippers, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.

    DeRozan has missed Sacramento's last three contests due to a back injury but appears close to returning to action. However, fantasy managers should look out for an official injury report to clarify DeRozan's status ahead of Friday's game.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Taking steps in right direction

    DeRozan (back), who has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks, has been cleared for individual on-court workouts, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    While DeRozan will be sidelined for a third straight game Monday, the Kings are labeling him as day-to-day, and a return to action in Sacramento's next contest Friday versus the Clippers could be a possibility if all goes well over the next few days. Given that he's been sidelined for about a week with lower-back tightness, DeRozan shouldn't require a lengthy ramp-up period and likely won't have many restrictions with his minutes once he's cleared to play again.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Ruled out for Monday

    DeRozan (back) is out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

    DeRozan has been dealing with a lower-back injury that will hold him out of a third straight game. Doug McDermott and Jordan McLaughlin picked up substantial minutes during Saturday's game and figure to continue to see ample roles with DeRozan sidelined.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Won't play vs. Utah

    DeRozan (back) is out for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

    As expected, DeRozan will also sit out the second half of this back-to-back set, marking two straight absences for the veteran. The Kings opted to start Alex Len at center and Keegan Murray at small forward in Friday's loss to the Timberwolves, but there could be more changes to their lineup since Domantas Sabonis (back) is also out for Saturday's contest. DeRozan's next chance to play will come against the Hawks on Monday.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Ruled out against Minnesota

    DeRozan (back) won't play in Friday's game versus the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

    DeRozan has been downgraded from doubtful to out Friday due to lower back tightness. Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. DeRozan's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Utah.

    DeRozan (back) didn't participate in shootaround ahead of Friday's game versus the Timberwolves, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

    DeRozan is officially listed as doubtful for Friday's contest due to lower back tightness. The veteran forward's absence from practice is another indication that he will not be suiting up against Minnesota.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Unlikely to play Friday

    DeRozan (back) didn't participate in Thursday's practice and is considered doubtful for Friday's game versus the Timberwolves, Brenden Nunes of Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

    DeRozan injured his back during Wednesday's game against Phoenix and is expected to remain sidelined Friday. If the veteran forward is ultimately ruled out, Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott will likely continue to receive increased playing time.

  • Kings' DeMar DeRozan: Battling back tightness

    DeRozan has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Suns due to lower back tightness, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Keon Ellis started the third quarter in place of DeRozan, who remained in the locker room after halftime with what we know now is a back injury. Ellis and Doug McDermott could see more action while DeRozan is inactive. His next chance to play will come Friday against Minnesota -- the first leg of a back-to-back.
