Veteran Sharpshooter Doug McDermott Signs One-Year, $3.6 Million Deal to Return to Sacramento Kings

Veteran forward Doug McDermott has officially agreed to a guaranteed one-year, $3.6 million free-agent contract, marking his return to the Sacramento Kings for what will be his fourth stint with the team and his 12th NBA season. This agreement, confirmed by his agent, positions the Kings over the salary cap but below the luxury tax line, filling their 15 roster spots. Known as a premier sharpshooter, the 6'6" wing boasts a career three-point percentage of 41.1%, and last season with Sacramento, he averaged 3.5 points on 42.5% overall shooting and an impressive 43.6% from beyond the arc in 42 games while playing just over eight minutes per contest. McDermott is expected to provide valuable veteran shooting depth off the bench for coach Doug Christie.
