DeMar DeRozan's performance at the Drew League
DeMar DeRozan gave fans a game to remember by pairing up with LeBron James. Many had expected to see the two play together for the LA Lakers last season. Unfortunately, this would not happen as the Lakers pursued Westbrook.
However, DeRozan and James displayed unbelievable chemistry on the floor together. Coming up against a rather tough team in Black Pearl Elite, the superstars put on a show worth remembering.
DeRozan himself had an impressive night. The Bulls superstar contributed a valuable 30 points and 14 rebounds for the MMV Cheaters' winning effort. DeRozan shot a disappointing 9-23 from the field, which did not matter much as they won the game.
While this remains suggestive of NBA players taking it easy during the offseason, the interaction suggests some degree of annoyance. However, DeRozan commented on how it's part of the game.
While Drew League players aren't necessarily always professional athletes, they are better than the average basketball player. However, the difference in skill between above-average players and professionals is beyond significant.
Watching DeMar DeRozan in top-form at the Drew League game was almost reminiscent of his performance with the Chicago Bulls last season. Fans will hope to see the superstar maintain his form for the upcoming season as well.
