Forward DeMar DeRozan wasn’t the only Bulls player to hit a milestone in the team’s victory Monday against the Hawks.
Not to be outdone by DeRozan playing in his 1,000th regular-season game, third-year forward Patrick Williams notched his first double-digit-rebound game of the season.
Even with ‘‘milestone’’ being used lightly for Williams’ accomplishment, it shouldn’t have taken him until the Bulls’ 46th game of the season to reach the 10-rebound mark. Not at 6-7 and 215 pounds and as explosive as he has shown he can be around the rim.
What matters to the Bulls, however, is that he keeps moving forward.
