Posts 30-point double-double LaVine accumulated 35 points (10-23 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 11-13 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and one block in 43 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 loss to the Pacers. Impact The nine-year veteran has recently seen his role on offense pick up over the last two contests while DeMar DeRozan has dealt with a lingering hip issue that forced him to exit Monday's loss to the Magic early and sidelined him for Wednesday. The absence of DeRozan has only enhanced what was already a strong start to February for LaVine, who is now averaging 28.9 points, 5.9 boards, 3.4 assists, 2.3 three-pointers and 0.6 steals over his last seven outings.
