DeMar DeRozan said he wants to spend his whole career with the Raptors, and he said he’d let teammate Kyle Lowry dictate his free-agent decision. But sometimes players get caught up in the moment and express loyalty to their team in a way that doesn’t reflect reality. How does DeRozan really feel? Stephen A. Smith of ESPN, as transcribed by Ryan Ward of Lakers Nation: “He’s made it very, very clear that he wants to be in L.A.,” Smith said of DeRozan’s intentions in free agency. “He has family out there. He’s from out there. He wants to be in L.A. He wants to wear the purple and gold, and if there’s a way for it to happen, again he’s restricted, if there’s a way for it to happen, DeMar DeRozan will be in a Los Angeles Lakers uniform next season.” - See more at:http://nba.nbcsports.com/2016/05/13/rumor-demar-derozan-wants-to-sign-with-lakers/
