Good Value
OverpayFair ValueGreat Value
Sacramento got a B Contract Value Index out of the DeMar DeRozan deal because rotation impact tracks with the AAV. At $24.6 million annually on a two-year agreement, DeRozan is being compensated as a veteran starter whose 2025-26 production—18.4 PPG, 2.9 RPG, 4.1 APG across 77 games—reflects solid but not elite output for that price tier. His B-level performance grade indicates he's delivering meaningful minutes and scoring punch, though not at the All-NBA caliber that defined his career arc, which included All-NBA 2nd Team honors in both 2018 and 2022. At 36 years old and in his seventeenth season, DeRozan occupies the rare position of a longtime veteran still functioning as a rotation cornerstone rather than a decline-stage asset, which justifies the mid-tier contract valuation. The Kings' recent signings of complementary depth pieces signal a franchise banking on maximizing his remaining productive years, a bet that aligns with the positive sentiment surrounding his Hall-of-Fame trajectory and late-career renaissance narrative. With only two years remaining on the deal, Sacramento has limited long-term salary commitment while maintaining flexibility to adjust the roster around this veteran core.
