With 24 points vs. Cleveland on Saturday, Zach LaVine recorded his 14th game in a row to score at least 20 (3/15-11/10/18), which is a career-long streak. The last Bulls player to post a double-digit streak of 20-point scoring was Jimmy Butler with 15 such games from Nov. 7 to Dec. 6, 2016. Wendell Carter Jr. has recorded at least one block in 12 of 13 games this season. He has eight blocks over his last three games, and his 2.08 blocks per game leads all rookies and is seventh in the NBA. Ryan Arcidiacono made his first NBA start vs. the Cavaliers on Saturday. He scored a career-high 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-4 3FGM) to go along with four rebounds and two assists. It was his fourth double-digit scoring game in 12 played this season, after posting no double-digit scoring games his rookie year last season. On Wednesday at New Orleans, Wendell Carter Jr. posted his fourth double-double of the season with 17 points and 11 rebounds, which was also his third in a row. He is the third rookie in franchise history to post at least four double-doubles in his first 12 NBA games (Tom Boerwinkle and Dave Greenwood). And he was the first Bulls rookie to have three consecutive double-doubles since Taj Gibson in the 2009-10 season.
