DeRozan finished Friday's 114-108 victory over the Nuggets with 26 points (7-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 12-12 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 36 minutes.
DeRozan is one of the two unquestioned scoring leaders for the Bulls -- the other being Zach LaVine -- and has put up at least 25 points in three of his last four appearances. His shooting was a bit off in this contest, but all signs point toward this being nothing more than a night off for the veteran. DeRozan is averaging 26.6 points per game while shooting 48.8 percent from the field this season.
