We love you Dereck! You're already special but can't imagine you at your full potential.

"You gotta taste defeat to understand the value of victory" 💯

[@philos212]

Hope the team rallies around him during the off season. With all that have happened in this young man’s life, especially with his mother’s passing, the sadness will sink in as soon as he gets away from basketball. Hope his friends on the team realizes that and keep him close during the offseason.

Facts!!!

[@khalida02]

Sounds like he does have other family that he’s close to, too, that’s really good. But yeah I think this team will, lots of good people.

Such a smart and composed young man. Feel like having DLive and Gafford in rotation might just become the best center option out of all NBA.
