CHICAGO -- When Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan returned to the locker room on Thursday night -- having just willed the Bulls to a 135-130 overtime victory over the LA Clippers with a season-high 50 points -- his teammate, Zach LaVine, sat and waited to present him with the game ball.
However, as DeRozan went to retrieve his prize, the rest of the team went into a frenzy, mobbing him and dousing him with water bottles in celebration of another clutch performance.
DeRozan scored 17 points in the fourth quarter and added 10 more in overtime to lead the Bulls to a 16-point second half comeback over the Clippers.
