He has the range. We're just trying to get him to catch and shoot instead of putting it on the floor.

Derek has really developed into a scorer. He could always catch and shoot, but now he has a mid-range jumper and is driving to the basket more.

The biggest thing is he's got range, and he's the best catch-and-shoot guy in Canada right now. Coming off screens, he gets his shot off real quick and that makes it real tough.

I was glad to get out there. It was emotional for me, just putting on the uniform and being able to take the field at Jacobs Field.

We won. Each day we're building. We're 8-1, it's not a fluke. We're playing well against very good teams.

He has to play the best guard night in and night out. This is our first year with him and he's learning and fitting in.
