With DeMar DeRozan leading a balanced attack, the Toronto Raptors have taken a 2-0 series lead over the Washington Wizards in their first-round matchup of the 2018 NBA Playoffs. Toronto snapped a streak of 10 consecutive Game 1 losses when they took the series opener.
DeRozan had just 17 points in the first game but erupted for 37 in Game 2. All the while he’s continued to pay homage to Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant. Unlike Michael Jordan who has several athletes on their Air Jordan subsidiary roster, Bryant stands alone.
But various models from Bryant’s signature shoe line with Nike can be seen on the court any given night.
