Zach LaVine & DeMar DeRozan’s offense in the 2nd half will get all the attention, but the Sacramento Kings defense held the Pistons to just 45 points in the 2nd half after a 72-point 1st half.

LaVine carves up the Pistons defense for the And-1. Kings still hanging around. It’s 91-88 with a freebie coming. – 8:52 PM

DeMar DeRozan’s time in Sacramento hasn’t worked out. But if he isn’t a King next season, I will miss his ability to just get a bucket when the offense is struggling.
It’s easy to take for granted. – 8:39 PM

Kings trail 72-62 at the half, but it could have been much worse. DeRozan leads with 22 points. Zach LaVine has 13 points and Domantas Sabonis has 12 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists. Malik Monk is out for the remainder of the game. – 8:14 PM

Rough night for Stephen Curry, but he still passed Reggie Miller on the scoring list for No. 24 in NBA history.
There was also this: DeMar DeRozan moved ahead of JERRY WEST for No. 26 all-time. – 4:11 AM

More on this storyline
James Ham: From Kings: With DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine each reaching 30+ points tonight at DET, this marks the second time this season the Kings have had multiple 30-point scorers in a game.
DeRozan (31) and LaVine (30) also had 30-point games at LAC on March 9, 2025. -via Twitter @James_HamNBA

DeRozan has made multiple All-NBA and All-Star teams in his career and is one of the best scorers of the 21st century, but he has never even made the Finals. As he nears the end of his career, it’s very plausible that he demands a trade to a contender. “You have DeMar, who I think is going to be similar to Sabonis,” Amick said. “There’s going to be some tough conversations in the summer where guys decide they feel like they want to be a part of this.”
