DeRozan was in LA for his freshman season in 2008-2009. He was a one and done player was he was drafted to the Toronto Raptors in the 2009 NBA draft, number nine overall. 

In his one year as a Trojan, DeRozan was named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman team, All Pac-12 tournament team, and Pac-12 tournament MVP. 

During that year, DeRozan averaged 13.9 points per game, 5.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists. He also shot 52% from the field.

DeRozan has gone on to have a really good NBA career. In 14 seasons with the Bulls, Spurs and Raptors, he has averaged 21 points,  4.4 rebounds and 4 assists per games. 

He has been named to six All-Star games in his career and has made an All-NBA team three times.
