The Chicago Bulls faced the Houston Rockets Thursday night at H-Town and the Rockets took a lead near the end of the game, looking for a crucial win. The game was as entertaining for basketball fans as it was for the scuffles on the court, with the Bulls’ DeMar DeRozan clashing with the man known in the business, Dillon Brooks.
At the end of the third quarter of Thursday night’s game in Houston, fans witnessed a bizarre hockey-style confrontation that DeRozan rifled at Jalen Green near midcourt, causing a commotion the likes of which had not been seen in some time.
