Ochai Agbaji lit up the Mavericks with 24 points (9-of-12 FGs), six rebounds, three assists and six three-pointers on Friday.
Agbaji got off to a scorching hot start to Friday’s game and scored 17 points in the first quarter alone while shooting a perfect 6-of-6 from the floor, which included five three-pointers. Unfortunately, he didn’t do much over the final three quarters to add to his spectacular start. This tied his season-high for both points and three-pointers, both of which were set in a late-November win over the Pelicans. Agbaji has been in and out of the lineup recently, so his status for Sunday’s finale in San Antonio is unclear.
Dereck Lively II recorded a double-double on Friday with 10 points (5-of-7 FGs) and 11 rebounds against the Raptors.
This was Lively’s fourth appearance since he injured his ankle back in the middle of January. His 18 minutes in this game were the most he has played since prior to his injury, and while it wasn’t much more than he played in his previous three games, he was able to record his first double-double since January 9. He had a total of 12 points and eight rebounds in his last three games, and he was held without a rebounds against the Lakers on Wednesday. It’s good to see Lively playing well after such a lengthy absence.
AJ Lawson provided a boost off the bench with 12 points (3-of-10 FGs), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer against the Mavericks on Friday.
Lawson, who signed a contract with the Raptors earlier in the day on Friday that will keep him with Toronto through the end of the 2025-26 season, played well in his first game since signing the new deal. He recorded his second career double-double, with the first coming a little over a month before this one. Lawson should once again play a significant role in the season finale in San Antonio on Sunday, but he isn’t a player that will carry much value over to next season.
Matas Buzelis lit up the Wizards with 20 points (7-of-14 FGs), six rebounds, four assists, three blocks and three three-pointers on Friday.
Buzelis may not be in the conversation for Rookie of the Year, but his recent performance should have Chicago fans encouraged. This was his sixth-straight game making at least 50 percent of his shots, and he has now scored in double figures in 10 of his last 11 outings. The Bulls clinched the ninth seed in the East, which means Sunday’s season finale against the 76ers won’t matter. However, it may be a good opportunity for Buzelis to play a premier role. Unless Billy Donovan opts to rest him, the rookie should be a focal point of the offense to close out his first regular season.
Julian Phillips led the Bulls with 23 points (7-of-11 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in a 119-89 win over the Wizards on Friday.
Phillips used a big third-quarter performance to help Chicago close the door on this game and set a new career-high for scoring. He scored 15 of his 23 points in the third quarter alone to help lead the Bulls to a 30-point victory. The 2023 second-round pick didn’t play a significant role as a rookie, but he has played a larger role in year two. He started in place of Josh Giddey, and with Chicago locked in as the ninth seed in the East, Phillips will likely start against the 76ers in the season finale on Sunday with the veterans resting in preparation for the Play-In Tournament.
Nikola Vucevic stuffed the stat sheet on Friday with 15 points (7-of-15 FGs), 12 rebounds, eight assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer against the Wizards.
For the second-straight game, Vucevic fell exactly two assists shy of recording a triple-double. Chicago has now won their last five games with Vucevic available, and he has recorded a double-double in each of them. His recent production is more in line with the numbers he was putting up early in the season, which is a good sign for the Bulls as they enter the postseason. They are locked in as the ninth seed in the East and will host Miami in the first game of the Play-In Tournament. Vucevic will likely sit against the 76ers on Sunday in the season finale.
