Doug McDermott agreed to a one-year, $3.6 million contract on Monday to return to the Sacramento Kings.

McDermott's agent Mark Bartelstein confirmed that McDermott will be back in Sacramento for a second season after playing 42 games for the Kings in 2024-25.

The 33-year-old McDermott provides another outside shooting threat for Sacramento after he shot 43.6% from 3-point range last season. McDermott averaged 3.5 points per game in limited action last season.
