DeMar DeRozan never had a hard time defining himself in Chicago. That was true even as he returned to the United Center in a black and purple jersey on Sunday, helming the Sacramento Kings to a 124-119 win in his first game against the Bulls since leaving the organization in free agency last summer.

DeMar DeRozan returned to the Windy City for the first time since getting traded to the Sacramento Kings in the offseason.

DeRozan left an indelible mark during his three seasons with the Bulls. Coaches and players lauded his midrange efficiency, clutch factor and leadership, but it’s the person DeRozan is that made the most lasting impression on the franchise.
