Dereje’s effort stood out. He moved without the ball, set hard screens, crashed the glass, and did the little things that help teams win. In showcase settings where flash often takes over, Dereje’s activity and willingness to embrace a role separated him. His hustle and attention to detail gave his team extra possessions and momentum.
