Derrick Lee (born 1 October 1973) is a retired Scottish rugby union player who played for Watsonians, London Scottish and Edinburgh Rugby. He was noted for his line breaking ability and reliability under the high ball. An instinctive understanding of timing and angles resulted in him being at one point the top try-scorer of all time in the Celtic League although that record has since been broken.
