DeMar DeRozan said he has no problem playing out the final year of his contract without an extension.
“I honestly don’t think about it at all. I never have. It doesn’t worry me or stress me out. Again, I control what I can control. And in due time, let it speak for itself,” DeRozan said.
DeRozan did say he sometimes thinks about how long he wants to play. He said he misses his kids and their activities. But he’s just taking things as they come and doesn’t have an answer on how long he wants to play for.
“I tell the young guys now: Enjoy and appreciate it while you’re young because as you get older, your perspective changes. You start to gain more responsibility in life. It gets tougher. Those hotel nights get longer,” DeRozan said. “But me being a fan of the game, man, I never wanted to see Kobe retire.
