Sharpe stated, “DeMar DeRozan had the game that everybody thought Kevin Durant was going to have. He killed Giannis last night. It’s like his eyes got bigger every time he see Giannis Antetokounmpo. That’s Giannis. That’s the defensive player of the year. He’s like ‘I don’t care. I can get my shot. I’m going to get to my spot.’”
