Pops for 26 against Heat DeRozan supplied 26 points (6-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 13-13 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Saturday's 127-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact Facing his former Raptor running mate Kyle Lowry, DeRozan delivered another big performance but didn't get enough help to pull down a win. The veteran wing continues to play power forward in an undersized Chicago lineup, but he's still scored at least 20 points in seven straight games, averaging 30.3 points, 4.7 boards, 3.4 assists, 1.0 threes and 0.9 steals over that stretch.

Chicago hosts Miami after DeRozan's 50-point outing

Chicago hosts the Miami Heat after DeMar DeRozan scored 50 points in the Chicago Bulls' 135-130 overtime win against the Los Angeles Clippers

APRIL 1, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Drops 50 points in overtime win DeRozan finished with 50 points (17-26 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 14-15 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal in 43 minutes during Thursday's 135-130 overtime victory over the Clippers.

Impact DeRozan ended the third quarter having posted 23 points, but he saved his best for last in a thrilling performance. The veteran forward scored 17 in the fourth quarter and 10 more in overtime to guide Chicago to a closely contested victory. This was DeRozan's top scoring game of the season and second 50-point game of his career -- his previous such effort came Jan. 1, 2018, in an overtime win over Milwaukee. DeRozan has been incredible over his past three games, averaging 39.7 points on 51.9 percent shooting from the field while going 33-for-34 (97.1 percent) from the charity stripe.

Leads all scorers with 32 points DeRozan notched 32 points (12-27 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 107-94 win over the Wizards.

Impact DeRozan topped the scoring list again Tuesday, something that has been a common theme thus far this season. Outside of a drop in efficiency of late, DeRozan has continued to put together his best season from both a fantasy and a reality standpoint. The Bulls remain in the hunt for a top-four seed and so DeRozan will be front and center as they push for wins down the stretch.

Scores 20 points in return Saturday DeRozan finished with 20 points (8-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 98-94 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact DeRozan was somewhat inefficient but still came through with a serviceable performance Saturday. After a brief stint on the sidelines, he looked completely fine, logging 35 minutes despite racking up five fouls. The Bulls will be looking to win as many games as possible before the regular season comes to a close and so DeRozan should be looking at a strong finish to the season.
