Ignore his worst category (rebounds) and he's worth -1.14.
Age-36, and our projection bakes in a genuine role cut: efficient midrange buckets and elite free-throw volume, but the all-around production has thinned and Sacramento's scoring logjam leaves him a low-ceiling points-and-FT source. Steady, not exciting.
DeMar DeRozan enters 2026-27 at #165 on our board — Round 14 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 13.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 30.6 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers and free-throw percentage, with rebounds the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-rebounds builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 63 games.
