Appearing on The Draymond Green Show, DeMar DeRozan was candid about a depressing free agency period that fueled a career season.

The Bulls actually finalized the particulars with the Spurs on the sign-and-trade transaction on Aug. 3, 2021, just over 24 hours into free agency. It became official on Aug. 11. But the buildup to free agency involves backchannel conversations and talks of parameters that left DeRozan swirling.“When the Chicago thing came around and I made that happen, it was such a relief. But at the same time, it angered me and put me in a very frustrating mental of like, this.

DeRozan indeed did that. He earned second-team All-NBA honors and his fifth All-Star selection by averaging a career-high 27.9 points. He sank dramatic back-to-back game-winning shots on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, posted an historic stretch of eight straight games with 35 points or more on 50 percent or better shooting, and helped the Bulls make their first postseason appearance in five years.
