“He can shoot highly contested shots at a level that I don’t think we’ve seen since Dirk Nowitzki.”
He is DeMar DeRozan. And tonight in San Antonio, the Chicago Bulls All-Star will become the newest member of the 20,000-point club.

Jakob Poeltl, on longtime former teammate DeMar DeRozan coming to town seven points shy of 20,000:
“Obviously that’s a big milestone for him and we’re happy for him, but hopefully we can hold him to six.” – 2:01 PM

More on this storyline
Joe Cowley: Pop calls timeout. Spurs have stopped the game to honor DeRozan’s milestone and will now show a video montage to congratulate him. Pure class. Says how much of an impact he made with the organization and how important his relationship with Pop was. Mr. 20,000! -via Twitter @JCowleyHoops / October 28, 2022
Tom Orsborn: Donovan said DeRozan has “a lot of respect and reverence for Pop.” -via Twitter @tom_orsborn / October 28, 2022
How did you develop the 5 a.m. workout? DeMar DeRozan: From Kobe. You know what’s crazy; I was watching The Redeem Team (documentary) the other day, when he was up early in the morning working out. And that’s kind of when it kind of started. I got that from Kobe, before I was in the league. I just stuck to it. And I laughed when I watched it. That’s exactly where I got it from, exactly where I got it from. It all started with him, just seeing his work ethic and how he approached it. -via The Athletic / October 28, 2022
