A multitude of NBA All-Stars are enjoying their offseason by spending time at Kendrick Lamar's 'Pop Out and Show' concert in Los Angeles, but Russell Westbrook and DeMar DeRozan went a step further.
The two joined Lamar on stage to perform "Not Like Us," which is a scathing diss of fellow rapper Drake. Westbrook and DeRozan grew up in the Los Angeles area, with the Los Angeles Clippers guard hailing from Long Beach while the Chicago Bulls forward and Lamar are from Compton. It's quite a surprise to see DeRozan on stage performing the diss on Drake, considering his past ties with the Toronto Raptors. Among others at the event were LeBron James, James Harden, Coby White, and Kendrick Perkins.

DeRozan has not denied the possibility of returning to play for one of his two hometown teams, either the Lakers or Clippers. With the Bulls expected to start fresh in the coming season, it's not out of the cards to see him in an LA uniform by the end of next season.
Meanwhile, Westbrook could test free agency waters this offseason with a player-option with the Clippers for next year.
