Bulls overpowered Lakers in a close 115-110 win

DeMar DeRozan scored 38 points to lead Chicago Bulls to a win past Los Angeles Lakers with 115-110. The Bulls star returned to the lineup after missing two weeks in the NBA's health and safety protocols, but it was a comeback worth waiting for as the Bulls overpowered Los Angeles Lakers at United Center.

Chicago was playing their first game after Dec. 11 facing LeBron James and co. on the other side, Bulls were trailing by just a single point at the end of the match and then DeRozan fired a big 18-footer for a 111-110 lead with 52 seconds remaining then grabbed two free throws as well to seal their win. This was Lakers second back-to-back loss while LeBron James scored 31 points, Carmelo Anthony added 21 and Russell Westbrook chipped in with 20 points more.
