“Only getting better. Please don’t offer him a contract in free agency!” -the Kings according to people here.

For the record, a huge difference exists between what I would do and what I think the Kings might choose to do given they opted to pay someone 48M a year to take Keon’s starting spot even though he had the highest Net Rating on the team.

And before you say they wouldn’t be so dumb as to let Keon go may I remind you of the Haliburton trade.

As Kings fans we’re trained to assume that all our players are bad all the time but Zach Lavine (when healthy) is an elite scorer that is probably not entirely unworthy of his contract.

I’m trying to think of another player in the league that can slash 50/44/80+ while average 23 points a game and get as much disrespect. Beal would be the closest but he makes more money and has the no trade clause. I’m guessing if Lavine played for a non loser franchise (Wolves, Bulls, Kings) his career arch would be different even with the injuries.

There is an alternate universe where the Warriors traded for Lavine instead of Butler at the deadline and he averaged 30 points a night playing off of Steph and Draymond for the entire stretch run.

Only way to put this rumor to bed is to have Webb and DC full on kiss at opening night.

He had good efficient scoring years on bad teams. I kinda want to see how he would do on functional team with good defense around him.

The real ones respect DeRozan but he is a basketball terrorist according to Kings fans.
