    This broke me man. Losing my mother is my worst fear. After watching this I'm rooting for the Derek even more. I hope he achieves everything he's set out and then some.

    This is a deeply moving story about Derrick Lively and his strong connection with his late mother, Kathy, who courageously fought cancer before her passing. Despite his profound loss, Derrick pays tribute to his mother by showcasing exceptional skill on the basketball court and keeping her love and encouragement close to his heart during games. Derrick's emotional path highlights the significant influence his mother had on both his life and career. It serves as a touching reminder of the enduring strength found in love, family, and resilience.

    Man this interview brings me emotions. Sometimes you just don’t want to lose the ones that mean the most which just brings extra motivation knowing they’re looking down watching. Dereck keep pushing.

    I can understand what Dallas Mavericks center 🏀 Dereck Lively is going through right now I just lost my mother February 20th of the year 2024 to kidney failure and trust me it isn't fun losing the women that birth you into this world 🌎 there are many days where it hard to occupy yourself with things to do to take away from the pain of losing your mother 💔💔😭😭😭 so I truly feel for him at this difficult time in his life he's not alone I am in the same boat with him

    I said it before and I said it again, KP is a bum that means nothing.
    Why people keep acting like he's prime Shaq is beyond me. If anything, Celtics need to trade him this offseason. Literally did nothing all playoffs.

      My mother died a week after DLive's mom. This isn't exploitation. It's food for the soul. Until hateful folks try to tear down something that's not for them. If you hate a video like this so much just pass it by in silence. Or do what you do, and shit on anybody else's grief, cause that's lovely.
