Sacramento Kings sign Doug McDermott to enhance offense after tough season

The Sacramento Kings have signed Doug McDermott to boost their offense after a disappointing 2023-24 season. Last year, the team fell from having the NBA's most efficient offense to 13th place and missed the playoffs. McDermott, known for his three-point shooting, made an immediate impact in his preseason debut, attempting 11 three-pointers. He has a career shooting percentage of 41% from beyond the arc, which the Kings hope will improve their spacing and scoring. The Kings also added DeMar DeRozan and backup point guard Jordan McLaughlin to enhance their offensive production. While this may weaken their defense, the team is focusing on becoming an elite offensive unit to improve their playoff chances.
