Shout it out: Former Raptor DeRozan's daughter goes viral in Toronto's play-in loss

Diar DeRozan wanted to skip a day of school. Her father grudgingly went along with the plan.

Turns out, the decision was worth shouting about.

Her ear-splitting shouts would come when the Raptors — her dad's former team — were shooting free throws, and they were loud enough to even become a conversation point during the ESPN broadcast of the game. The Raptors finished 18 of 36 from the line in their season-ending loss.

"My daughter called me the other day when she was getting out of school and she just said, `Dad, can I come to the Toronto game?"' DeRozan said. "I remember her going to all the Toronto games when she was a kid and I almost said no because she's in school back home. But she kept asking. She was just adamant about coming to support and I said, `All right, you can miss one day of school and come to a game.'

"I'm glad I did," DeRozan said. "I owe her some money for sure."
