DeMar DeRozan Breaks Down His 'Extremely Opposite' Approaches He Has with Players as a Vet Leader
Sep 22, 2024 at 12:03 pm
The six-time All-Star was a guest on The Underground Lounge podcast. Sitting down with former NBA player Lou Williams, DeRozan dove into his veteran persona and how he treats the younger players accordingly.
DeMar DeRozan has been playing in the NBA for over 15 seasons. The 35-year-old Compton native is now a veteran in the locker room. But when asked about his veteran presence, DeRozan revealed two contrasting approaches he takes with players.

The six-time All-Star appeared on The Underground Lounge podcast, where he discussed his veteran persona and how he interacts with younger players.
“Whatever city we get to, there’s a mandatory meeting downstairs. 15 minutes after you put your bag down, we go out to go eat. Ain’t no eating no chicken wings, like we going to a restaurant.”
DeRozan explained that he prefers to take the younger guys on the team to nice places to dine in rather than fast-food joints. But on the court, Deebo pushes the young players to their limits.
“When it’s anything on the court, I push the motherf**kers to the breaking point. I talk crazy to ‘em and I don’t let up on ‘em at all.”
However, off the court, DeRozan is known for his hospitality. Though it still surprises him when younger players tell him they grew up watching him play.
DeRozan’s time with the young Bulls
In an interview with BleacherReport, DeRozan discussed his veteran presence in Chicago and his experience with the Bulls organization, which featured a much younger roster.
“It’s enjoyable because you learn so much from them and they teach you so much in the same token. And once you, like accept that, it’s fun.”
DeMar mentioned other things he would learn from the youngsters, which included new music, youth culture, and more. He even shared how some Bulls players teased him about being born in the ’80s, making him feel old.
But DeRozan didn’t take it personally. In fact, the 35-year-old joined the Sacramento Kings this season and will be playing with a whole new roster of players, including a few veterans.
It’ll be interesting to see how he integrates into the organization.
