DeMar DeRozan has always been a momma's boy. 'My mom is like my best friend.' They've always had a special bond and the love and appreciation continues to grow. Here, in his own words, is a Mother’s Day tribute from DeMar to Diane.

His best friend. His dog. His rider.

I used to hate discipline when I was young. But as I got older, I started appreciating it so much and understanding why she was so hard on me and why she gave me so much love and showed me so much protection at the same moment. I remember being young, she always used to try to keep me away from making any type of mistake — making sure I walked through the door every single day. I didn’t understand it when I was young. So, whenever I used to get out of line in any type of way, she used to whup my ass. I’m talking aboutLooking back on that, laughing, the humor in that was just her always beating some sense in me. Not to be like everybody else.

We laugh about those moments now because they played a part in me just being conscious of understanding how not to make the wrong decisions. For example, at a young age, if I was 8, 9 years old, and I was mad and I cussed, she was, like: “Cuss. Get it out. Get that s— out. Just do that in front of me. You’re not going to go around other people cussing and talking this way. But if you need to cuss to express yourself, get it out. Use it.”
