For the first time in a long time, the Chicago Bulls look like genuine title contenders. Leading them with might and flawlessness, is 32-year-old DeMar DeRozan. In another victory for the Bulls on Monday, DeRozan top scored yet again. In the process, he equaled an insane NBA Bulls record previously held by Michael Jordan.

DeMar DeRozan has rebuilt a version of himself that nobody expected to see. All of a sudden, he is one of the league’s most feared guard-forwards. In the 2021-22 season, he is averaging around 27.9 points, significantly higher than his career average.

As a result, he is one of the leading candidates for the MVP award, and his side is well on its way towards a convincing playoff finish. Can he match big MJ and capture the big championship?

DeMar DeRozan matches impeccable Michael Jordan record vs Spurs

Speaking of Chicago’s finest, nobody did it better than Michael Jordan. A 6-time league winner and 14-time All-Star, ‘His Airness’ remains the level every upcoming star aspires to reach. Along the way, he broke almost every record that was meant to be broken. But now, years later, DeRozan has become the first player representing the franchise, to achieve an outstanding feat. And fans were left in disbelief at the same.
