This season has been one of his (Carlos Boozer) most personally challenging, with a reduced role and widespread speculation about the Bulls using the amnesty provision to discard him this offseason.

Boozer is averaging 29.1 minutes, his least playing time since logging 25.3 minutes as a rookie with the 2002-03 Cavaliers.

Thanks to (Taj) Gibson’s foul trouble Thursday night, Boozer played more than 30 minutes for the first time since Feb. 4 in Phoenix.
