Bulls' Nikola Mirotic stays hot on the offensive end in win over Jazz

Chicago Bulls forward Nikola Mirotic posted a season-high 29 points on 11-of-18 shooting, adding rebounds and 2 steals in 35.3 minutes of action in a win over the Utah Jazz.

What It Means:

Mirotic has shot 60% or better from the field in three of his four games since returning from a facial injury this season. The sample-size is small, but he's averaging 19.5 points and 5.8 rebounds while boasting a massive .694 effective field goal percentage.

numberFire's models project Mirotic to cool off with only 6.4 points and 2.9 boards in 14.2 minutes of action against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.
