Demar DeRozan

Chicago Bulls star climbed the 20k points mark on Friday in his own hypnotic way when he hit a mid-range jumper in the first quarter in San Antonio and became the 50th one to achieve this feat. The Spurs side instantly called time out for him to celebrate this milestone.

After the victory, DeMar stepped on to say, “I wanted to save it for Pop,” sarcastically, further he continued “Going back to space that I spent time, learned so much from, a place that embraced me, wasn’t nothing but love. And it was definitely a learning curve for me in my career at a critical time in my career – and Pop really helped me a lot in my career. I think it will be cool to be able to do it there.”

The Chicago Bulls also mentioned their trusted player on Twitter, congratulating him for his work.

On January 30, 2014, he opened his curtain towards the NBA All-Stars Games in that season as a reserve guard for the Eastern Conference All-Stars Team. The 2013-14 season also turned out to be a breakout career for this star where he averaged 22.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.0 assists.

The 2017-18 season came up as his exit season for the Toronto side after which he was traded to San Antonio Spurs for which he recorded 28 points in his debut to register a 112-108 points win over the Timberwolves. The following two seasons didn’t go as planned for the American professional, and then came the bounce-back season for DeRozan when Chicago Bulls picked him. He didn’t disappoint the side giving many bummer performances through which he was also selected in his 5th NBA All-Star Games.

The story now continues for this shooting guard.
