Gasol is the first player in the NBA since Kevin Durant (Jan. 26, 2011 at Minnesota: 47 points, 18 rebounds) to record at least 46 points and 18 boards in a game. Gasol is also the first Bull since Michael Jordan (March 28, 1990 at Cleveland: 69 points, 18 rebounds) to accomplish the feat (STATS, LLC.). For Gasol, it was the third time in his career that he scored 40 or more points in a game. In the first quarter of Chicago’s win over Milwaukee on Jan. 10, Pau Gasol recorded 20 points (7-10 FG, 6-6 FT) and six rebounds in the first quarter. His 20-point, first quarter performance marked just the fourth time in his 14-year career that he scored at least 18 points in a quarter (Elias Sports Bureau).

Among all rookies, Bulls forward Nikola Mirotić currently ranks first in three-point percentage (.358), first in free-throw percentage (.780), fourth in rebounds (4.5), fourth in blocks (0.63) and sixth in scoring (7.7). On the year, Mirotić has posted 20 games with 10 or more points, two games with 20 or more points and three double-doubles. On Jan. 1 versus Denver, Chicago tallied a franchise-record 18 blocks (previous record, 16 at Cleveland on Jan. 20, 2012), including a career- high nine blocks from Pau Gasol. Chicago ranks first in the NBA with 6.73 bpg. On the year, the Bulls are averaging 102.3 ppg, good for ninth in the league in scoring. Chicago’s scoring clip is its highest since it averaged a league-best 105.2 ppg in 1995-96. Last season, the Bulls produced 93.7 ppg. On Dec. 22, the Bulls scored a season-high 129 points (40-74 FG) in their victory over Toronto (129-120). Chicago’s 129 points are the most the team has scored since the 2010-11 season (posted 132 points vs. SAC on March 21, 2011). The Bulls also set a new franchise record for points in a quarter with 49 fourth-quarter points. During that quarter, Chicago shot .700 (14-20 FG) from the field and .864 (19-22 FT) from the line.

He has posted a double-double in 21 of his last 30 games and also is first in the NBA with 29 double-doubles. In 48 games (one start) this season, Aaron Brooks has scored in double-digits 32 times. On the year, Brooks is averaging 11.2 ppg in 20.0 mpg. Jimmy Butler currently ranks second in the NBA in free-throws made (278) and in free-throws attempted (332). With a road record of 17-7, the Bulls are off to their best start on the road since 1996-97 when they began the year with a road mark of 19-4. Chicago’s 17 road wins are tied Atlanta (17-5) for the most in the NBA. Chicago has outnumbered its opponent on the glass in 29 of its last 40 games.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK The Bulls will be well represented at NBA All-Star 2015 in New York, as Chicago will send two players to the All-Star Game for the third time in four seasons. Pau Gasol, voted in by NBA fans, will start for the East and Jimmy Butler, selected as a reserve by Eastern Conference head coaches, will make his All-Star debut off of the bench for the East. For Gasol, it is his fifth All-Star nod, but his first as a starter. Bulls rookie Nikola Mirotić has also been selected by the head coaches to play for the World Team in the BBVA Compass Rising Stars Challenge on Friday night of All-Star Weekend.

FOR STARTERS For the second time since 1998, the Chicago Bulls will have a starter in the NBA All-Star Game. Bulls forward Pau Gasol was voted in by fans to start the 2015 All-Star Game in New York. Gasol tallied 974,177 total votes (second-most among frontcourt players). The selection is Gasol’s fifth overall All-Star nod and first as a starter. At the time of his selection, Gasol held averages of 18.8 ppg (23rd in the NBA), 11.3 rpg (sixth), 2.7 apg and 2.13 bpg (fifth) in 34.9 mpg. The 34-year-old is currently on pace to set a career high in rebounds per game and his scoring average is his highest since he averaged 18.8 ppg in 2010-11 with the Los Angeles Lakers. Gasol joins his brother, Marc Gasol (Western Conference starter), as the first brothers to start in an NBA All-Star Game. This marks the sixth straight season that Chicago will have a player participate in the NBA’s midseason showcase.

RAGING BULLS In 2013-14, Chicago ranked last in the NBA with a scoring average of 93.7 ppg. This season, the Bulls rank ninth with an average clip of 102.2 ppg.
