DeRozan averaged 27.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 7.3 assists last week while leading the Bulls to a 4-0 record, which included two consecutive game-winning buzzer beaters against the Indiana Pacers on Friday and the Washington Wizards on Saturday.
The Bulls (24-10) enter Week 12 of the season sitting as the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference and riding a seven-game winning streak.
