DeMar DeRozan and the Chicago Bulls have been off to an unbelievable start to the 2021-22 NBA season with a 17-8 record in their first 25 games. 

However, some unfortunate news on Monday was been reported about the availability of the four-time All-Star.   

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, DeRozan has entered into the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols (see tweet from Wojnarowski below). 

The Bulls were obviously without DeRozan on Monday night when they defeated the Denver Nuggets 109-97 in Chicago.  

Prior to this season the Bulls had not been a very good team.  

They went 31-41 last season, which was good for the 11th seed in the Eastern Conference, and missed the Play-in Tournament.  

They also have not been to the postseason since 2017, but that appears as if it will change this season due to the additions of DeRozan, Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso. 

  • DEROZAN PASSES JORDAN ON A LIST FOR THE BULLS: DeMar DeRozan and the Chicago Bulls have been on a roll to start the new season as one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. DeRozan is a four-time All-Star, and in his first season in Chicago, he recently passed Hall of Famer Michael Jordan on a franchise-record list. CLICK HERE.
  • STEPH AND THE WARRIORS ARE ON FIRE: The Golden State Warriors have not made the playoffs in two seasons, but that appears likely to change this season. They are on fire to start the season led by superstar guard Steph Curry and are tied for the best record in the entire NBA. . CLICK HERE.
