What’s good everybody? I got a chance to experience my first All-Star weekend in Dallas two weekends ago. Raptors TV was nice enough to follow me around and track my experience there as part of my One Rookie series they’ve been doing. Take a look at all of the videos from my first All-Star game below.
Part 1
What’s good everyone? We’re back in T-Dot after a short 3 game road trip. We started off a little rocky in Atlanta, but bounced back to win two in a row. It’s a long season, so we just gotta keep playing hard and playing together.
Here’s part 3 of my Rookie Documentary for Raptors TV called “One Rookie”. In this one you get to see what an NBA Rookie goes through in training camp. Let me know what you think of it. Thanks for the support.

What’s good fans? Just wrapping up my first pre-season in the NBA. I wanted to share an interview I did with the Holly MacKenzie of thescore.com. We talked about everything, so I think all of y’all will enjoy reading.
HM: DeMar DeRozan, when did you start playing the game of basketball?
DD: I was about six or seven when I started playing ball.
HM: And you were how old when you threw down your first dunk?
DD: I was in the sixth grade when I first dunked. I can’t remember how tall I was, though.
HM: Were you always taller than everyone or did you shoot up in high school and have an awkward phase?
DD: Yeah, when I was in about 7th or 8th grade I shot up to about 6′3″ and then by my senior year I was about 6′6″, 6′7″.
HM: Biggest influence for you basketball wise?
DD: I have to say watching Michael Jordan and everything that he did. That played a big influence on just getting a passion for basketball even more. Growing up, watching how passionate he was about the game.
HM: One of your favourite moments in basketball history?
DD: That’s a tough one. You know, growing up in California, LA was my favourite team, the Lakers. So I have to say that when they won back-to-back, when they had the threepeat, that was one of my best basketball moments.

Wassup fans? Although I spend most of my time posting here at the Rookie Chronicles, I also have a blog up on Raptors.com that I will be posting on from time to time. Here’s my latest post:
Just wrapped up a meeting with a crew from Raptors TV about producing a cool feature this season for you guys.
Basically, I just want all of you to see how I’m getting adjusted to NBA life both on and off the court. You’re going to see me putting in work as I get ready for the season, but I want to make sure you see aspects of me off the floor in my everyday life too.
