DeMar DeRozan linked to Miami Heat and Boston Celtics amid free agency

Six-time NBA All-Star DeMar DeRozan is currently an unrestricted free agent following his departure from the Sacramento Kings. Analysts and betting markets are identifying several potential landing spots for the veteran scorer, who ranks 16th on the NBA's all-time scoring list.

The Miami Heat have emerged as the leading candidate to sign DeRozan, with Kalshi markets giving them a 40% probability. While his midrange scoring and ability to create his own shot are seen as assets, some scouts have raised concerns regarding floor spacing if he were to play alongside existing stars.

The Boston Celtics have also been named as a strong fit for DeRozan. Other teams showing interest or listed in betting markets include the Toronto Raptors, Denver Nuggets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Washington Wizards, and Golden State Warriors.
