Man,It’s crazy to see dereck doing this stuff.I grew up playing basketball with him,I went to same middle and high school as him.Me and him were on the same team in 5th grade and he was just the nicest and funniest person that I’ve ever met.We played a game of knockout at one of our practices and it came down to just me and Dereck and I ended up beating him and he was vary good in 5th grade and so I was like did I just do that? Every time I would score he would always scream and cheer for me and so to see him playing at duke its unbelievable and I hope that I get to meet him again some day because I’m really proud of him.

1 more year Dereck. Refine your game here. Your mid range J and your back down game. Refine it at Duke and win a title. The NBA will be there when your ready. Cash some NIL and get NBA ready over another run at Duke. Same for FLIP and Dariq. Give it 1 more here and you guys will be superstars in the making

It’s apparent after seeing this Video that Dereck Lively II is going to be the Latest DUKE “One & Done” Player because of his preoccupation with Money. As long as he’s certain that a NBA Team will draft him in the 1st Round which would at least Earn him a Million Plus Contract, then he’s Going Professional.

Drafted 12th I think he’ll be fine

@PHN-2024 Жыл бұрын

@@bradykelley9592 Also, interesting Fact by being Picked at the 12th Spot, Derrick Lively’s 1st year salary is Slotted at $4.8M, however if he was Picked at the 10th Spot (which he and that Player were Traded for) the 1st year Money would have been $5.2M. Basically, the MAVERICKS Saved $500K from the Trade in the 1st year and even more over the 5 years of they have his Rights.
