Donte DiVencenzoa on Warriors Branding: when you’re playing with Giannis or Jrue, Steph and Draymond, they’re big-time guys. So when you go places, you expect everyone to just see them and you just keep it moving. I’m next to Draymond and they’re also going crazy for me across the world.

>The Warriors experience is different in many ways. DiVincenzo won state titles in high school, a national title at Villanova and an NBA title with the Bucks. But the level of fame and interest that comes with the Warriors is another level. As he left the Starbucks in Tokyo to a crowd of fans, he was reminded of his new world.
“I think the first time I realized it was different was when I walked off the plane with Draymond,” he said. “I’m walking and the fans stop Draymond for autographs. All of a sudden I’m walking behind him and I turn and all the fans were like ‘Donte!!’ I had no idea. I don’t want to put myself down. But when you’re playing with Giannis or Jrue, Steph and Draymond, they’re big-time guys. So when you go places, you expect everyone to just see them and you just keep it moving. I’m next to Draymond and they’re also going crazy for me across the world. It was super cool. But it’s when it clicked, like, the Warriors brand is huge.”
