DeMar DeRozan and Delon Wright do not believe DeMarre Carroll
DeMarre Carroll is known to be a hard worker. After all, you don’t get the nickname Junkyard Dog without being more tenacious than the majority of players. So when he posted a video to Instagram on Tuesday night where he was sweating hard, it was easy to believe he was pushing himself. That is, unless you are his teammates DeMar DeRozan and Delon Wright.
Don’t believe me? Check the comments on that post. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

For those too lazy to go look here is how the exchange went.
"Delon Wright: Threw water on your face.DeMar DeRozan: @delonwright he got the heater on bro."
That is pretty great. And honestly, it fits the Raptors perfectly. Toronto is one of the best “friendship” teams in the NBA, led by DeRozan and Kyle Lowry who constantly poke fun at teammates.

In reality, it seems fair to think that Carroll was working pretty hard. After all, he posted the video around midnight. No sane person is faking working out for Instagram at midnight. Plus, Carroll ended last season injured, so it makes sense he would really push to make this year great.
Either way, he seemed to take the jabs in good humor.
"demarrecarroll1@delonwright@demar_derozan😭😭😂👏🏾👏🏾 Y’all got one!!!"
I’m honestly not sure what y’all got one means but I assume Wright and DeRozan do. So now we watch for Carroll’s revenge. When or how it will come is unclear but knowing the Raptors there will be something coming down the line.
