Zach LaVine goes off for 39 points in Wednesday’s win

Zach LaVine finished with 39 points (12-22 FG, 2-7, 13-15 FT), six rebounds, three assists, and a steal during Wednesday’s 109-105 win over the Raptors.
Fantasy Impact:
The Bulls became the first 10-seed to win a game in the play-in tournament, largely due to LaVine's masterful 39-point performance. After only scoring nine first-half points, the veteran locked in and dropped 17 points in the third quarter alone, with another 13 in the fourth. While he only managed to knock down two of his seven attempts from behind the arc, he made up for it by attacking the rim and getting to the charity stripe, where he shot an impressive 13-of-15 (86.7%). The Bulls will now travel to South Florida as 5.5-point underdogs to face off against the Heat Friday night in a pivotal matchup. With a bid to the playoffs on the line, LaVine should again be in line for big minutes and be an excellent DFS option.
