'Free as a bird:' Chicago Bulls' DeMar DeRozan drops 38 on Los Angeles Lakers in return

CHICAGO -- In his first game in more than two weeks after clearing the NBA's health and safety protocols, Chicago Bulls star DeMar DeRozan matched a season-high with 38 points, including 19 in the fourth quarter, to lead the Bulls to a 115-110 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday night at the United Center.

DeRozan was playing in his first game since Dec. 4, and the Bulls were playing for the first time in more than a week after having two games postponed amid a team COVID-19 outbreak. Although DeRozan was one of the 10 Bulls players who landed in the league's protocols, he did not experience any symptoms from the virus.
