Darius Bazley is only 19 years of age. He’s got an endorsement deal with New Balance, has worked to earn a stable role on a playoff team and is slowly establishing himself as a versatile player, who will be one of the centerpieces for the OKC Thunder going forward.
He’s a character too, wise beyond his years but still a kid at heart who is not afraid to be himself. The Boston native is used to standing out from the crowd. He proved that by forgoing College and training away from organized basketball before declaring for the draft.
