He would never again come close to that level of production, but managed to have a decent NBA career, most of which he spent with the Braves. After playing 27 games with the Braves in the 1977-1978 season, he was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers, but DiGregorio played in a Lakers uniform in only 25 games before retiring at the season's conclusion.
