DeMar DeRozan contributed 18 points, five rebounds, three assists, and four three-pointers in Friday’s game against the Thunder. Despite his efficient shooting, DeRozan’s performance was overshadowed by the blowout loss and limited court time of 29 minutes. While his long-range shooting was a highlight, his overall fantasy impact was lessened by a lack of defensive stats and playmaking opportunities.

In Wednesday’s victory over the Warriors, DeMar DeRozan delivered a strong performance with 25 points, achieving his third 25-point game this season. With Zach LaVine and Domantas Sabonis absent, DeRozan took on a larger scoring role, attempting over 20 shots for just the second time this season. While primarily contributing in points and free-throw percentage, DeRozan maintains his status as a reliable top-100 option in nine-category fantasy basketball leagues.

DeMar DeRozan delivered a more efficient performance Tuesday, contributing 19 points on 7-of-14 shooting in a loss to the Thunder. While his free-throw shooting remains a concern, converting just 64.7 percent, DeRozan continues to meet expectations with consistent value in nine-category formats. His solid contributions in points and steals suggest potential for even greater fantasy impact if his free-throw accuracy improves.

In Sunday night’s victory over the Lakers, DeMar DeRozan tallied 21 points, showcasing a balanced stat line despite a less efficient 9-of-22 shooting from the field. While his 20-point performance marks a strong start to the season, fantasy managers should watch for his impact on teammate Domantas Sabonis, who saw limited shooting opportunities. As DeRozan continues to shoulder significant offensive responsibility, his fantasy value remains promising with potential top-50 ranking, but Sabonis’ role could see fluctuations.

In a close contest against the Suns, DeMar DeRozan delivered a standout performance with 29 points on efficient shooting, complemented by six rebounds and nine assists. Despite his struggles from the free-throw line, the veteran guard’s all-around play shone through, maintaining his fantasy value. While the missed free throws were uncharacteristic, DeRozan’s solid production in other areas continues to anchor his team’s efforts.

DeMar DeRozan has been cleared to play in Wednesday’s game against the Suns after missing the preseason finale due to a sore groin. With no injury concerns, he will resume his role in the Kings’ starting lineup. Fantasy managers should prepare to include DeRozan in their lineups as he returns to action.

DeMar DeRozan will miss Friday’s exhibition against the Lakers due to a sore groin, raising concerns about his availability for the October 22 regular-season opener against the Suns. The Kings are already dealing with a depleted roster, as Keegan Murray is sidelined with a thumb injury, and Domantas Sabonis is questionable after a hamstring strain. Sacramento’s depth will be tested as they navigate these potential early season absences.
