DeMar DeRozan’s daughter went viral for screaming at Raptors players during free throws

Every little bit helps, especially during a win-or-go-home NBA play-in game.

On Wednesday, the Chicago Bulls visited the Toronto Raptors with both their seasons on the line as the NBA play-ins continued throughout the week. After the Atlanta Hawks bested the Miami Heat a day earlier, the Bulls and Raptors faced off to determine which team would advance to the next stage of the play-ins and which one would head home.

Things weren’t looking so hot for the Bulls early on, but Chicago seemed to be getting an assist from a sixth man as the game went on. DeMar DeRozan’s daughter, to be exact! During Raptors free throws, DeRozan’s daughter screamed at the top of her lungs to distract Toronto players and it was so audible, even the broadcast took notice of it.

Have you heard the screaming from the crowd every time the Raptors take a free throw?

It's literally DeMar DeRozan's daughter 😭 pic.twitter.com/7nnIqpfbtO

And look, we’re not saying DeRozan’s daughter was the reason the Raptors shot 50 percent at the line and missed a season-high 18 free throws, but hey, maybe it really was working? Especially after the Bulls bested the Raptors 109-105 to complete the late-game comeback.

DeMar DeRozan’s daughter is at the game and is yelling every time a Raptors player is at the free throw line.

Love it.

It's apparently DeMar DeRozan's daughter.

And the Raptors are only 10-of-20 at the line, so good job by her! https://t.co/dfLmYPlsWP

DeMar DeRozan’s daughter (who Twitter is telling me is behind it) is playing better defense than the Bulls with her shrieking when Toronto is at the free-throw line.
