DeMar DeRozan Receiving Interest From Heat, Nuggets, Cavaliers
Miami is weighing DeRozan against Klay Thompson as it seeks a veteran scorer, with 18.4 points per game last season.
- On Monday, NBA insider Shams Charania reported the Miami Heat, Denver Nuggets, and Cleveland Cavaliers are monitoring free agent DeMar DeRozan as a contingency after failing to sign LeBron James.
- The Sacramento Kings waived the six-time All-Star on July 6, making DeRozan an unrestricted free agent after he started 77 games last season, averaging 18.4 points and 4.1 assists.
- Miami holds roughly $8 million in mid-level exception funds while eyeing Klay Thompson, though the Nuggets can only offer a veteran minimum contract after exceeding the second apron line.
- Although DeRozan prefers Miami, at least one member of the Heat decision-making group remains hesitant to sign him, as the team monitors Thompson's status with the Dallas Mavericks.
- The Cavaliers seek additional wing scoring to complement core players Donovan Mitchell and James Harden following their Eastern Conference Finals appearance, with DeRozan's fit contingent on each team's specific needs.
