Dennis Schroder will join the Sacramento Kings on a free agent deal, The Athletic reported Monday. Terms of the contract were not yet known.
The Kings were interested in both Schroder and Russell Westbrook as veteran backcourt options, according to multiple reports, and they still may sign both.
Schroder, 31, split 2024-25 among three teams. He began the season with the Brooklyn Nets, was dealt to the Golden State Warriors in December and then flipped to the Detroit Pistons before the trade deadline in February.
All told, Schroder still managed to average 13.1 points, 5.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game across 75 appearances (49 starts) for that trio of teams.
The Kings will be Schroder's 10th NBA team in his 13th season. He's averaged at least 10 points per game in every season since his second in the league, with a career mark of 13.9 ppg in 842 games (424 starts).
