DeMar DeRozan never has made a secret about Kobe Bryant’s impact on his life and game, and he paid tribute to the late Lakers star again on Wednesday.
On that day, DeRozan also played the Raptors as a member of the Spurs. Almost eerily, the Spurs flew to Chicago after that game to face the Bulls.
Now, DeRozan plays for the Bulls and, after another game against his first team in the Raptors, will travel to San Antonio on Thursday for Friday's meeting with the Spurs "I thought about that this morning," DeRozan said."I said, 'Man, how crazy is that?' That I play in Chicago now and we just played the Raptors the same day. It was just a mind twist."
Throughout the NBA, love and remembrances flooded forth for the Bryants and seven other victims. DeRozan, who typically wears some basketball shoe from Bryant's line, wore the"USA Kobe 10s" in tribute. Zach LaVine wore"Kobe 1s" that featured the same colors that Bryant wore when he scored 81 points against---you guessed it---the Raptors in 2006.
