[Game] Kings @ Lakers 10/17/2024 7:30 PM Pacific 10:30PM Eastern

Obviously the Lakers aren’t playing Lebron tonight but they have too may players who are terrible at defense but good at offense and players who are terrible at offense but good at defense lol
 
DeRozan feels like the odd one out here. Both he and LaVine have shown more willingness to defend, but DeRozan’s caught in that tough tweener spot, not quite quick enough to stay in front of guards and wings, yet not strong or big enough to handle most 4s.

LaVine’s defensive issues, on the other hand, could be covered up a bit with Keon or Nique around him.

DeRozan’s contract isn’t as huge, roughly in line with Keegan’s new deal, so there might be some teams out there willing to make a move that helps rebalance the Kings’ roster.
The ball moves more fluidly.
 
This is actually a pretty good rotation for Zach too. Similar to his Bulls run before getting traded to Sac. Leading a bunch of young guys and benchers.
