After scoring just nine points on Wednesday, DeMar DeRozan bounced back and nearly carried the Chicago Bulls to a win on the road. He had 46 points while attempting 22 free throws but it ultimately wasn’t enough in a 123-119 loss to the Boston Celtics.
Despite being outplayed for much of the second half, Chicago made things interesting late in the fourth quarter. Thanks to some clutch shots from Nikola Vucevic and DeRozan along with Zach LaVine getting to the free throw line, the Bulls had a chance to tie the game up multiple times after being down for a majority of it.
