*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Saturday, March 25th,. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, March 26th.
Chicago Bulls
The fact DeMar DeRozan is questionable has me wondering how bad the injury is because the vet would never miss a game on his hometown floor (or in Toronto) if he was even remotely close to healthy.
It’s bad timing for the Bulls if he can’t go because they’ve been slowly climbing up the seeding ladder and enter this match winners of four of their last five.
Season Stats
Chicago scores 113.3 points per game ranking 20th while they shoot 48.9% from the field and 36.6% from the perimeter ranking fifth and 12th respectively.
Defensively, they allow 112.3 points per game ranked eighth. So far, their opponents shoot 46.6% from the field and 35.4% from the perimeter ranking sixth and 11th respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- DeMar DeRozan SG (questionable —quad)
- Lonzo Ball, PG (OUT for season— left knee surgery)
- Javonte Green, SG (questionable — right knee surgery)
- Justin Lewis, SF (questionable— knee)
Los Angeles Lakers
Anthony Davis is playing some of his best ball since arriving in LA with his supporting cast doing their part while the refs also seem to be doing their part sending players to the line at an increased clip
Opposing coaches and players (see Devin Booker) have aired their grievances but there is some substance to the complaints. Particularly, WHO is getting to the line such as Austin Reaves and Dennis Schroder whose free attempts have quadrupled since LeBron James’ injury.

Both teams are in the hunt to ensure they cement a play-in berth and climb as far up the ladder as possible.
Chicago sits in 10th 4.5 games away from the coveted sixth seed. Conversely, the Lakers are eighth with a real shot of nabbing the cemented sixth seed because of how packed the teams are in the West.
