it’s unfortunate when trouble finds you, but it absolutely does matter if he was in the right.
Since there was no arrests made I doubt this will turn into anything that will involve league discipline… and DeRozan has a great reputation around the league on all levels so I doubt it will affect his trade value if the Kings look to move him.
When DeRozan gets into a scuffle with Dillon Brooks or commits a hard foul on Jalen Green. The first thought even from fans/announcers of the Rockets is “what did those guys do to get DeMar to act like that?” and that seems to be the general reaction to this incident
