One of the biggest moves made this offseason was the Chicago Bulls trading DeMar DeRozan to the Sacramento Kings. This prompted Patrick Williams, a forward who was recently bestowed with a $90 million extension by the Bulls’ front office, to reveal how he truly felt about the trade.
The Kings recently acquired DeRozan in a three-team sign-and-trade deal . Sacramento signed the All-Star to a three-year, $74 million contract, adding him to a core that includes De’Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis, and Keegan Murray.
In the deal, the San Antonio Spurs will receive Harrison Barnes from the Kings, while the Chicago Bulls will get Chris Duarte and two second-round picks from the Kings.
DeRozan, a six-time All-Star, averaged 24 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists for the Bulls last season. He finished second in Clutch Player of the Year voting behind All-Star point guard Stephen Curry. The Kings project DeRozan’s leadership and late-game heroics can help them make a deep playoff push. Spurs bring in Barnes to pair with rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama and free agent acquisition Chris Paul. Meanwhile, the Bulls continue their youth movement, cutting ties with DeRozan and acquiring the promising 21-year-old Duarte.
