Doug McDermott goes for 29 points as Bulls upset Raptors
Chicago Bulls forward Doug McDermott scored 29 points during a 109-107 win over the Toronto Raptors on Monday, adding one rebound, one assist and four 3-pointers in 37 minutes.
What It Means:
McDermott has played well this year when given the minutes and shot attempts, and with three Bulls' starters down Monday night, he stepped up in a big way. His 3-point shooting has been superb this season, and while other parts of his game still need work, he is quickly becoming an elite NBA shooter.
McDermott has a nERD of -1.9 this season, and he is averaging 9.3 points and 2.4 rebounds in 23 minutes per game. His Effective Field Goal Percentage has skyrocketed this season to 53.7 percent, which ranks eighth among small forwards who have appeared in at least 59 games this season.
