NBA free agency is in full swing, and the latest news is buzzing with major player movements. DeMar DeRozan, one of the top remaining free agents, has agreed to a three-year, $74 million deal with the Sacramento Kings. This move comes after a series of other significant deals, including Paul George’s pact with the Philadelphia 76ers and Klay Thompson’s sign-and-trade with the Dallas Mavericks.
LeBron James also made headlines by taking a two-year, $101.4 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, slightly below the max. This move allows the Lakers to avoid the second apron and potentially make further roster upgrades. James’ decision was influenced by the Lakers drafting his eldest son, Bronny James, with the No. 55 pick, fulfilling his desire to play alongside his son before retiring.
