Regarding DeMar, the obvious is obvious. The Raptors were an elite regular season that couldn’t get over the hump in the playoffs, traded him and won a title. The Spurs were a 10 seed, traded him and were still a 10 seed. The Bulls were a 9 seed, traded him and are currently the 9 seed.
He gets his numbers and has the accolades but he’s not really a needle mover like that and never really has been throughout his career. So it’s not really all that surprising that swapping Harrison Barnes for him was a lateral move
The Kings ceiling has always depended on Keegan Murray’s development bc Fox & Sabonis are what they are, and 3 years in he’s not really looking like he’ll be more than a role player. We know how this is gonna end, the question is how long will Sac take before pulling the trigger
