Bulls beat Raptors, Thunder top Pelicans in NBA play-ins -
The Bulls will visit the Miami Heat on Friday night for the chance to earn the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference playoff bracket, and a first-round playoff matchup with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks.
Fred VanVleet had 26 points and 12 rebounds and Pascal Siakam scored 32 points, but Toronto’s season ended in disappointment as the Raptors - with DeRozan’s daughter, Diar, screaming when they shot - went a dismal 18 for 36 at the free throw line. Toronto missed six attempts from the line in the fourth quarter.
The loss eliminated the ninth-seeded Pelicans while 10th seed Oklahoma City advanced to play at Minnesota on Friday night for the right to enter the NBA playoffs as an eighth seed.
