“LeBron and DeRozan don’t panic, they take their place on the court and do what needs to be done” – CSKA basketball player Ware

American point guard for Moscow CSKA Casper Ware spoke about playing together with DeMar DeRozan of the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James in the Drew League.
In the summer, CSKA signed a new agreement with 34-year-old point guard Ware for two years.
– What is it like to play with Demar, LeBron and others? Do you feel a difference in level compared to what you are used to?
— Yeah, there’s definitely a difference (smiles). Even in the way guys act before, after, or during the game. These guys don’t panic. They take their spots on the court, they do what they need to do. And no matter what, the team gets better with them. LeBron told me when he came in, “Listen, don’t worry about me, I’ll get mine. You just play your game.”
“It was pretty cool to hear him say that. I still talk to DeMar to this day. He’s 35 years old, LeBron is even older. And to see them continue to be at a high level at that age is pretty cool. So I try to learn things like that from them,” Ware told The Championship.
