TORONTO — With 28.7 seconds left in Wednesday’s play-in tournament game, DeMar DeRozan delivered his final blow to the Toronto Raptors in signature style — a step-back in the midrange, a flail of the arms, the shrill whistle of a foul call.
His former team knew the dangers of DeRozan’s pump fake. It didn’t matter — it rarely does.
As DeRozan made his way to the line, his daughter Diar — who terrorized the Raptors throughout the game with ear-piercing shrieks during free throws — pantomimed her father’s proper shooting form.
