Yesterday, the Chicago Bulls kept their playoff hopes alive by beating the Toronto Raptors on their home soil in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament.
The Bulls will now face the Miami Heat in Miami on Friday, to play fo the final playoff spot in the conference.
While Zach LaVine especially played a great game, the actual hero of the game was DeRozan… not DeMar, but his daughter Diar.
Diar had begged her father to be at the game, and everybody soon found out why she desperately wanted to be there. Whenever the Raptors were at the free throw line, Diar screamed at the top of her lungs to distract Toronto players. In fact, her screams were so audible, the broadcast and fans around the world took notice of it.
Oh and it was super successful, as the Raptors went on to miss 18 of their 36 free throws!
DeMar DeRozans Tochter Diar war der MVP beim Bulls Sieg über die Raptors. Ihre lauten Schreie beim Release der Free Throws sorgten dafür, dass die Raptors 18 Freiwürfe verwarfen (18/36)!
Seine Tochter wollte unbedingt zum Spiel, sagte DeMar… jetzt wissen wir auch warum. 🐐 pic.twitter.com/5kfpmKmSF6
