btw why did you put question marks when he said he is

I wasn't sure if he was just randomly quoting the Kevin Gates song, or he picked that line for a reason.

if ur quoting lyrics with that message. it's clear.

I quote r&b lyrics all the time on Twitter sub tweeting the truth.

sometimes you have to let somebody say it in their own words

Fixed

Hope he's good man. Crazy how things work, he's enjoying his best year as a professional yet his personal life is going the other way...

We got you DD

Kevin Gates is one of his favorites and is on a playlist he shared.
http://thelab.bleacherreport.com/demar-derozan-music-soundtrack/

Derozan on Kevin Gates:

“In the beginning of the song, he says it's a grind," DeRozan says of the refrain from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rapper Kevin Gates. "It's a hustle. It's persistence. That's what it always was for me, was the grind, the hustle, the persistence of putting that into my craft. It was something I always wish I had. He raps about what he wish he had, and it was all about staying on track of what you believe in. That's hustling and that's grinding and that's putting in the work every single day."

He’s also randomly quoted Kevin Gates before on Twitter:

Based on all of this I think this thread is a reach.

Case closed let's go get donuts

Hopefully he clarifies himself if they are just song lyrics. So many people replying to that tweet that they are praying for him or they are there for him. etc.

I wouldn't do a deep dive into it, but on another note his on court demeanor is very dry nowadays. I can't remember the last time he celebrated

I don’t think it’s just lyrics. If you look at his Instagram story he put “stress level: maxd out” dude is going through some things for sure

Look at his IG story, definitely a reason he tweeted those lyrics. Hope he gets better

I'm rooting for Demar. Depression is a bitch and I wouldn't want anyone going through it.

RealGM fam gotta show Demar some love.

Its not too hard to believe. His dad is going through health problems and he split up with his long time gf not too long ago. Hope he gets through it.

Prayers for DeMar.

Depression is some serious ****. For his sake I really hope he's quoting lyrics or misusing the term to represent that he's sad and that he's not actually depressed.

If man has been playing this season the way he's been playing while clinically depressed...I can't even fathom it. I'm ready to retire his jersey right now not even joking.

Cause for concern? Hope everything's ok with him.

You missed a great opportunity for a thread title. “DeMar DePressed”.

But in all seriousness, hope he’s good, a lot of bad **** going on for him right now

At the end of the day life is life. There are millions of people in the world who struggle with depression every day. Demar is potentially one of them. It’s not our job to figure out whether or not he’s depressed. It’s really none of our business and there’s nothing we can do.

How does DeMar not have a million followers on Twitter yet? Toronto is lacking. If he played for LA he'd have a million by now.

Probably true. Kyle Kuzma already has 1.2 million IG followers while his college teammates Delon & Jakob are hovering around 50-60K.

He has 2 mill on instagram with only 5 posts.

He deleted all of his posts last summer. He also picked up a ton of followers after he posted the video of team USA singing Vanessa Carlton. Drake tagging him helps as well.
