The shortest offseason in NBA history didn’t feel all that short to Darius Bazley. He thinks it wasn't short enough. Bazley’s sophomore season is set to begin a little more than 100 days after his promising rookie campaign ended. After missing 11 games with a right knee injury leading up to the COVID-19 shutdown in March, Bazley returned as a healthy and improved player five months later in the Orlando bubble. He enters this season with more responsibility.
