The Chicago Bulls eliminated the Toronto Raptors on the first day of the NBA Play-in tournament.
The Illinois franchise prevailed 109-105 over the Canadians with a stellar performance from Zach Lavine.
Pascal Siakam (32 points) and Fred VanVleet (26) were the shooting men for Toronto.
For their part, Lavine’s duo, Demar DeRozan, scored 23 points, however, his last name has become a trendbut this time for his daughter.
Although DeRozan’s performance was decisive for the Bulls’ victory, his little daughter was the franchise’s best card to advance to the Playoffs.
Diar DeRozan took advantage of the large number of free throws from the Raptors and the silence of his hometown to “bother” players with loud yelling.
The little girl was screaming loudly just as her father’s rivals were preparing to score free kicks.
The result was compelling: little Diar’s screams left the mark for the Canadians at 18/36 from personal.
With barely 50% effectiveness, the Raptors lost valuable points that were reflected in the direct elimination of the fight for the ring.
“Someone missed a free kick. I look back and I’m like, ‘Damn, is that my daughter screaming? I just saw it’s gone viral.”DeRozan said at the end of the game.
DeRozan revealed that his daughter asked him to go to the game, which required him to miss school.
“She called me the other day as I was getting out of school and said, ‘Dad, can I go to the Toronto game? I remember her going to all the Toronto games as a kid and I almost said no because I had school. But she He kept asking. He insisted on coming to support and I said, ‘Okay. You can skip school for a day and come to that game,” the former Toronto player said.
“I am happy to have done it. I owe you some money for sure.” joked.
