The title of becoming the top scorer in a particular conference in the NBA is something not to be taken lightly. Even in the Eastern Conference in general, earning the title of the top scorer is something that usually comes along with some type of star status. The Chicago Bulls 23-year-old shooting guard Zach LaVine is one of the East’s best scorers in the past two months.
Since the All-Star Break, but before his knee injury, LaVine was one of the NBA’s scoring leaders. The Bulls as a unit came out of the All-Star Break red hot and posted the best string of performances it has all season.
